The informed practice of environmental law requires not only on mastery of laws and regulations, but an understanding of scientific information conveyed by environmental scientists and engineers.  While many attorneys lack scientific  training, technical and scientific information are often critical to client successes, whether defending against an enforcement action, developing a property, siting an energy project or cleaning up contamination. 

Join us for a special 2-hour CLE that is designed to assist lawyers in providing informed legal advice to clients and will cover the basics of four key topics important in the everyday practice of environmental law:

  • What is a wetland
  • Understanding air and groundwater modeling
  • How to read an environmental laboratory testing report
  • Understanding of property's natural setting through its geology and hydrology
