Partner Geoff Hand will be participating in panel at the annual White + Burke Vermont Development Conference on Thursday, November 17 at the Hilton Waterfront Hotel in Burlington. The conference focusses on current economic trends, permitting issues, and economic growth.
Geoff will be presenting with Sarah Bartlett of the Vermont Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) and Kurt Muller of VHB on a panel entitled, “Evaluating and Regulating PCBs in Vermont’s Buildings: What Developers, Lenders, and Property Owners Should Know about Current Standards, the Process, and Anticipated Regulatory Changes in Vermont.” This panel will focus on PCB regulation and anticipated regulatory changes in Vermont, technical procedures for inventorying and sampling for PCBs in materials and indoor air, remediation options, and funding sources for this work. The panel will also address the DEC’s regulatory work regarding PCBs in non-school buildings and how it may affect redevelopment of properties constructed or renovated before 1980.
The panel will address an audience of development and real estate professionals in attendance at the day-long event that includes networking, seminars, and workshops. Registration for the White + Burke Vermont Development Conference is available here.
