Energy and environmental laws are changing rapidly both nationally and in Ohio, which has led many companies and communities to make sustainability a primary objective in their development projects and manufacturing processes. To react to these changes, companies must select a law firm that understands the future direction of climate change and how the new laws will impact businesses now and in the future.

The Green Strategies Group offers environmental services in the following areas:

  • Explaining evolving GHG and carbon reporting regulations and related business opportunities.

  • Implementing GHG emissions inventory programs to achieve “carbon footprint” reductions for an entity and its supply chain.

  • Understanding renewable energy credit trading programs and carbon trading programs related to developing Greenhouse Gas Initiatives.

  • Maintaining compliance with evolving Clean Air Act regulations.

  • Siting and permitting of environmentally sensitive facilities.

Sustainable Development

  • Facilitating “Brownfield” site access, due diligence, clean-up and redevelopment.

  • Developing sustainable projects and practices.

  • Environmentally-conscious construction and LEED certification building projects.

  • Wetland issues and compliance with state and federal Clean Water Act regulations.

Green Technology Projects

  • Regulatory compliance for siting and permitting air emissions and wastewater discharges.
