The Sleeping Giant Awakes: How States & Plaintiffs’ Lawyers Are Transforming Natural Resource Damages

By Steven W. Black, Mark Hausman, John E. Keffe, Jr., Todd L. Normane

After a decade of one ABA Section Committee that covered both Superfund and
Hazardous Waste, we decided to realign to better reflect the way practitioners have segmented

Natural Resource Damages Litigation Committee. Note the emphasis on litigation. As we step

It will then discuss the significant issues and options associated with reviewing, drafting, and negotiating audit clauses in software licenses and practical, effective steps to mitigate the varied audit-associated risks.
