ABOUT WENDY MARSH

I am an Environmental and Zoning Attorney with over 20 years of experience assisting clients on environmental and safety compliance, including permitting, compliance audits and defending clients in enforcement actions commenced by regulatory agencies, including interactions with the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA), U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC), Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and local environmental authorities. I also assist clients through due diligence reviews associated with transactions, both small and large, as well as refinancing activities, including developing creative solutions to address unknown environmental liabilities uncovered during such due diligence activities.I concentrated my practice on representing clients to manage their business risks and opportunities in accordance with environmental laws at both the state and federal level. To this end I regularly assist boards and developers through the myriad of remediation programs, including the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation & Liability Act (CERCLA, or Superfund Program), Inactive Hazardous Waste Program (State Superfund Program), New York State Spills Program, Brownfield Cleanup Program and Voluntary Cleanup Program. I also represent clients in pursuing and defending litigation commenced in federal and state courts seeking recovery of remediation costs expended under many of these programs. These projects include applications for rezoning, controversial development projects, large-scale renewable energy including wind and solar projects.
