Environmental Compliance and Commitment From the Top; From the Experts
Atlanta partner Randy Brogdon, Richmond partner Brooks Smith and Washington partner Brent Fewell had their article – “ Environmental Compliance and Commitment From the Top; From the Experts” – published March 17 in Corporate Counsel.
The trio’s article contends that, “regulatory compliance remains among the highest priorities for many companies” and that the “risk to a company’s reputation and value when an environmental incident occurs – be it an unintentional spill or an intentional act – is prompting more companies to pay closer attention to the risks associated with their operations.” In addition to examining some of these risks and how companies should continually look for and abate them, they provide tips on how to develop an effective compliance framework.
