Some communities, companies, or landowners are located near production plants or installations of the U.S. Department of Energy, U.S. Department of Defense, or other federal agencies that are contaminated with hazardous or radioactive wastes. We advise our clients on the best options for solving these pollution problems. This might include negotiations with these agencies or the environmental agencies supervising remedial activities at the facilities. If necessary, we will take legal action to force the federal government to clean up hazardous substances and prevent toxic releases that threaten nearby residents or property. We will also assist private contractors operating or cleaning up these sites to understand their environmental obligations.
