NEW TOOLS ADDRESSING NATURAL RESOURCE ISSUES FOR COMPANIES AND OTHERS
WHAT’S NEW AND HOW DO WE WORK TOGETHER TO CONSERVE, RESTORE, OPTIMIZE…?
Since 1999, the Ad-Hoc Industry Natural Resource Management Group (Group) has convened over a dozen Natural Resources Symposia intended to provide a forum for multi-stakeholder examination of natural resource related policies and practices with a focus on innovative solutions to address key issues and challenges.
This website contains materials from the Group’s most recent Symposia programs convened in 2020, 2022 and 2023, as well as – most recently – a series of Multi-Stakeholder Best Practice Approach Workshops convened in 2024 on the following key issues related to natural resource liabilities and related issues under US laws – PFAS; Climate; Remediation; and Emergency Response. Each of these Multi-Stakeholder Workshops significantly built upon the excellent discussions and exchange of the prior sessions in order to collectively work through the details of site-specific application of the Frameworks.
The output of the 2024 deliberations will be a document to be made broadly available to persons and organizations in both public and private sectors -- before the end of the year -- containing all four Best Practice Approach Frameworks together with related materials to aid site specific work, as well as the overall natural resource damage assessment and restoration practice arena.
