“The State's Vapor Intrusion Policy: Issues to
Consider” 9/2/06
Mineola, August 02, 2006 — The Firm Partners, Brian
R. Sahn and Aaron Gerhonowitz, have published an article
in the latest issue of the Nassau Lawyer.
Summarizing one of the main points of the article, Sahn
and Gershonowitz explain, "The DEC has begun to focus
on vapor intrusion as a significant problem not only at
sites that are undergoing remediation, but also at and around
sites at which remediation has been completed. The application
of this new policy has resulted in the installation of remediation
systems in private homes that are near contaminated sites,
the use of vapor barriers or venting systems in construction
of new buildings and the reopening by the regulators of
remediated sites."
Brian R. Sahn concentrates his practice in all facets of
commercial real estate transactions, including purchase
and sale agreements, acquisition financing, industrial development
transactions, commercial lease agreements and real estate
service agreements. Mr. Sahn has represented several large
public and private companies in the management, development,
disposition and acquisition of their real estate holdings,
frequently involving complex environmental, title and facilities
problems. He has represented defense contractors in facility
closures and divestitures, and in negotiations with local
redevelopment agencies and municipal representatives. Mr.
Sahn also represents institutional lenders in commercial
real estate and multi-family loan transactions.
Aaron Gershonowitz concentrates his practice in environmental
law and has represented clients in a wide variety of environmental
issues, including Superfund matters, RCRA compliance, asbestos
in buildings, and the environmental aspects of real estate
and corporate transactions. In addition, Mr. Gershonowitz’s
practice has included the representation of military contractors
with regard to closure of facilities, transfer of facilities,
and the related negotiations with the United States government
and local governmental agencies.
