When contamination complicates property acquisition, reuse, or stewardship, local governments can help transform these properties from liabilities into community assets. However, local governments can be reluctant to play an active part in redevelopment efforts due to feeling overwhelmed on how to start or what to do. Also, concerns about potential CERCLA liability at Superfund sites may discourage local governments from this role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This state and local government only session will share Superfund Redevelopment Program tools and best practices and highlight real-world case examples where local governments, worked with EPA to facilitate the cleanup, redevelopment, and reuse of contaminated properties in their communities. This session also will explore how Superfund liability protections and EPA\u2019s enforcement policies protect local governments during the acquisition, cleanup, redevelopment, and reuse of Superfund sites. Speakers will address EPA&#8217;s newest policies directly addressing the Superfund liability concerns of local governments. This session will empower local governments by providing specific strategies and tools for local governments to successfully return these blighted properties back to productive use while minimizing their liability risk, including how to attract and form productive partnerships between local governments and developers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>SPEAKERS:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Frank Avvisato, EPA Superfund Redevelopment Program (<a href=\"mailto:avvisato.frank@epa.gov\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">avvisato.frank@epa.gov<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bill Denman, EPA Region 4 Redevelopment and Chemicals Branch (<a href=\"mailto:denman.bill@epa.gov\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">denman.bill@epa.gov<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Matt Sander, EPA Office of Site Remediation Enforcement (<a href=\"mailto:sander.matthew@epa.gov\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">sander.matthew@epa.gov<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Craig Boehr, EPA Office of Site Remediation Enforcement (<a href=\"mailto:boehr.craig@epa.gov\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">boehr.craig@epa.gov<\/a>)<br>Victor Zertuche, EPA Office of Site Remediation Enforcement (<a href=\"mailto:zertuche.victor@epa.gov\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">zertuche.victor@epa.gov<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>WHEN:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Monday, December 7<sup>th<\/sup>, 2020<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3:30 \u2013 5:30 PM EST<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>TARGET AUDIENCE:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>State and Local Government Stakeholders, and EPA Employees<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>COST:<\/strong>&nbsp;FREE<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For additional information and to register, please visit:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/gcc01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.clu-in.org%2Ftraining%2Fwebinar%2Fosre-srp2&amp;data=04%7C01%7Cswingle.pamela%40epa.gov%7C5c28fc9d3798462864db08d88fc0a2a3%7C88b378b367484867acf976aacbeca6a7%7C0%7C0%7C637417404878346806%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&amp;sdata=CvZOnqdDqVGbV7HuUFMJG1scoVVLBpVmvnQCKHeXcQo%3D&amp;reserved=0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">www.clu-in.org\/training\/webinar\/osre-srp2<\/a>.
