**Expert Project Development Attorney for Energy and Infrastructure Projects**Navigating the complexities of getting your energy, infrastructure, or brownfield project under agreement, funded, permitted, and built is my specialty. As a seasoned Project Development Attorney, I collaborate with energy, manufacturing, and environmental infrastructure companies on a wide range of matters including transactional work, project financing, permitting, land use, compliance, and enforcement.I have a proven track record of resolving permitting and siting crises for large-scale midstream and manufacturing developments that have stalled due to regulatory challenges. My clients value my innovative thought leadership in financing and developing brownfields, as well as natural gas, renewable natural gas (RNG), micro-grid, and waste-to-energy facilities. I bring together expertise in public affairs, corporate, environmental, financial institutions, real estate, and regulatory practices to offer comprehensive project development services.My team excels in working with developer clients to identify and mitigate risks associated with cutting-edge energy and infrastructure projects, securing the most advantageous financing, incentives, and regulatory packages. We regularly negotiate your leases, EPC agreements, construction and loan documents, as well as the suite of design and design/build/operate agreements essential to your project.In the realm of environmental law compliance and enforcement, I handle sensitive criminal and civil investigations of environmental and safety compliance issues. Working alongside a team of assertive defense attorneys, I strive to achieve optimal outcomes for clients, whether conducting investigations for corporate audit committees, management, or in response to government actions. My enforcement experience includes cases involving toxic and hazardous waste disposal practices, water and air discharges, and operational reviews leading to significant regulatory infractions. I have managed investigations of large toxic chemical releases, rail car spills, catastrophe risk analyses, employee death inquiries, and hazardous waste disposal incidents. Our team conducts thorough compliance analyses and defends actions under OSHA, RCRA, TSCA, FIFRA, CAA, CWA, and their state counterparts.
