New CERCLA PFAS Designations: Strategies for Managing Risks and Moving Deals Forward

Environmental attorney Meaghan Colligan will participate in a virtual panel hosted by ERIS Webinars and sponsored by Holland & Knight on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) final rule concerning per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). Ms. Colligan will examine strategies to help property transactions and redevelopment projects continue in light of the new regulations designating PFAS as hazardous substances under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERLCA). Other topics of discussion include liability considerations for current and prospective property owners, impacts on environmental due diligence and best practices, risk management considerations and using PFAS data in decision-making.
