EPA Seeks To 'Clarify' Liability Issues For Brownfields Renewable Energy

摘要

As part of its push to encourage renewable energy development at brownfields sites, EPA has released a fact sheet for potential developers, seeking to "clarify potential liability issues" and provide answers to common questions that developers of such projects may have about liability. The fact sheet comes as the agency is also seeking the advice of a Department of Energy (DOE) laboratory on assessing the potential for renewable energy development at former industrial sites, a move that could be a major boon to renewable energy and overhaul the agency's process for developing site cleanup plans to take into account energy production possibilities.
