Environmental Crimes |
Environmental crimes are actions or omissions that violate standards set by local, state and federal governments to safeguard the environment and protect human health.
Environmental crimes may be prosecuted against individuals or corporations that violate federal environmental statutes relating to clean air, drinking water, use of pesticides, atomic energy, toxic substances and solid waste disposal.
Environmental charges, or even an investigation, can ruin your business and cost you dearly. Even the smallest violation of strict liability environmental crimes can be financially disastrous. EPA regulations regarding environmental crimes are voluminous, technical and complicated.
