Assisted International Food Producer Prepare for the Sale of an Operating Facility, Including Counseling on Defensive Environmental Due Diligence and PFAS Risk Management

Assisted an international food producer prepare for the sale of a former manufacturing facility, including developing a PFAS sampling plan in response to a potential buyer’s overly broad environmental due diligence demands. We developed a strategic plan for compliance with the CT Transfer Act, designing sampling safeguards to deal with the potential for triggering Connecticut’s “Significant Environmental Hazard” reporting requirements related to PFAS and holding anonymous discussions with the CT Department of Energy and Environmental Protection regarding defensive sampling results and interpretation of “background” PFAS levels.
