Management of solid waste is among the primary environmental challenges facing Connecticut businesses. With the state’s nearly 400-year history of agricultural and industrial development, developers today routinely encounter old industrial fill or an abandoned farm dump. In manufacturing and industry, proper management and disposal of solid waste, recyclables and hazardous materials is a constant challenge. In locating and developing solid-waste facilities, recycling centers, transfer stations and landfills, careful planning is essential.
With extensive experience in the legal and practical issues surrounding solid and hazardous waste management, we provide advice to clients before and during site development and continuing throughout the site’s operation. We assist clients in evaluating waste storage and disposal options. We help clients obtain all necessary permits for landfills, transfer stations, recycling centers and resource-recovery facilities. Our services also include negotiation of post –community benefits, service contracts, operational agreements and management fees and post-closure monitoring and maintenance.
