BCLP has extensive experience in the unique combination of legal and public/community relations presented when companies are sued by citizens or public advocacy groups. Our clients have included quarry operators, solid waste landfills, medical incinerators, CAFOs, power plants and real estate developments whose permits, approvals, or practices have been challenged. In addition, we have helped clients plan their projects in a way to minimize the likelihood of successful citizen challenges, to enlist and mobilize citizen support for projects, to appreciate and acknowledge environmental justice issues, and to maximize the likelihood of success if a citizen challenge to a facility’s permit, approval, or operation is brought.
