David Friedland Email & Phone Number

I help major public and private corporations comply with all aspects of air pollution regulation under the Clean Air Act and state and local air pollution statutes and regulations. On the regulatory side, I help companies and trade associations prepare comments on scores of proposed rules including revisions to the ozone and particulate matter NAAQS, several rounds of PSD/NSR regulations, numerous MACT standards, the “credible evidence” rule, federal and state Title V rules, and state and local rules. I have litigated many of these rules in the D.C. Circuit and elsewhere either as an industry petitioner or as an intervenor in suits brought by environmental groups. Most of these cases have resulted in favorable settlements, while others have resulted in published opinions. Once the rules are in place, I counsel a wide range of companies on compliance. My clients include petroleum refineries, synthetic chemical manufacturers, cement and glass manufacturers, pharmaceutical producers, consumer products manufacturers, waste management entities such as landfills and waste to energy facilities, can manufacturers, and trade associations representing numerous industries such as the airlines, road and home building, and chemical companies. I am honored to have been named to Super Lawyers since 2013, past chair of the Firm’s Environmental Practice Group, and current chair of the Air and Climate Change Practice Group.

Listed skills include Environmental Law, Administrative Law, Litigation, Legal Research, and 11 others.
