Principal Publishes LSPA Newsletter Article in 2004

Carl Shapiro has published an article in the LSPA Newsletter titled Successor LSPs, which addressed issues associated with LSPs as they assume the decision-making responsibilities that previously belonged to another LSP. For example, some contaminated properties that qualify as brownfields linger in the system due to the expense of remediation or indecisiveness about a development plan. For these sites, it is commen for owner(s)/developer(s) to have retained different LSPs who may have completed an environmental study as part of the MCP response action timeline for that site. The role of successor LSP may have the new LSP taking on potentially troublesome and different challenges and liabilities, and there is no current guidance or policy available from DEP that addresses information transfer obligations between successor and former LSPs.
