    BROWNFIELDS REMEDIATED? HOW THE BONA FIDE PROSPECTIVE PURCHASER EXEMPTION FROM CERCLA LIABILITY AND THE WINDFALL LIEN INHIBIT BROWNFIELD REDEVELOPMENT FENTON D. STRICKLAND* INTRODUCTION Communities across the nation suffer from the negative impacts of abandoned, underused, and potentially contaminated properties called “brownfields.”1 The term “brownfield” generally refers to “real property, the expansion, redevelopment, or reuse of which may be complicated by the presence or potential presence of a hazardous substance, pollutant, or contaminant.”2 According to a report prepared for the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in 2003 by Environmental Management Support, Inc., the number of brownfields in the United States ranges from 450,000 to 1,000,000.3 In the early 1990s, the U.S. Conference of Mayors labeled brownfields “one of the most critical problems facing U.S. [c]ities.”4 The appearance of abandoned properties in metropolitan areas may puzzle the typical uninformed resident. However, property developers, lending institutions, governments, lawyers, environmental agencies, and real estate professionals understand the primary reason for the condition. Developers are “hesitant to redevelop brownfields because of the investment risk and potential liability for cleanup costs.”5 This uncertainty, which causes apprehension for parties who might otherwise be inclined to redevelop brownfields, is a by-product of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA).6 In recognition of the serious impact that the brownfield problem has had, as well as how uncertainty about liability has contributed to the problem, Congress, in 2002, enacted the Small Business Liability Relief and Brownfields Revitalization * J.D.

INTRODUCTION One of the virtues of William Stoebuck and Dale Whitman's seminal hornbook, The Law of Property, is its extensive treatment of the subject of waste. ' Using half of a chapter, Stoebuck and Whitman introduce their read- ers to one of the great subjects of the common law of property, one that at- 2 3 4 tracted the attention of Coke, Blackstone, Kent, and many others. Their detailed analysis of the subject, which provides a general historical overview, a discussion of the seminal voluntary waste cases, Melms v. Pabst Brewing Co.,5 and Brokaw v. Fairchild,6 and a presentation of the legal and equitable remedies for waste, may strike some readers as old-fashioned. Although one recent law review article has called attention to several early nineteenth century waste cases, 7 relatively little contemporary academic scholarship has addressed waste doctrine in depth.

Here are the most important points in this chapter. ■ The various freehold estates are contemporary adaptations of medieval ideas about land owner­ ship. Past notions, even when no longer relevant, persist but ought not do so. ■ Estates are rights to present possession of land. An estate in land is a legal construct, something apart fromthe land itself. Estates are abstract, figments of our legal imagination; land is real and tangible. An estate can, and does, travel from person to person, or change its nature or duration, while the landjust sits there, spinning calmly through space. ■ The fee simple absolute is the most important estate. The feesimple absolute is what we normally think of when we think of ownership. A fee simple absolute is capable of enduringforever though, obviously, no single owner of it will last so long. ■ Other estates endure for a lesser time than forever; they are either capable of expiring sooner or will definitely do so. ■ The life estate is a right to possession forthe life of some living person, usually (but not always) the owner of the life estate. It is sure to expire because none of us lives forever.

  • Chapter 14 the Economics of Marine Litter
    Chapter 14 The Economics of Marine Litter Stephanie Newman, Emma Watkins, Andrew Farmer, Patrick ten Brink and Jean-Pierre Schweitzer Abstract This chapter aims to provide an overview of research into quantifying the economic impacts of marine litter. From an environmental economics perspec- tive it introduces the difficulties in measuring the economic costs of marine litter; reviews those sectors where these costs are notable; and considers policy instru- ments, which can reduce these costs. Marine litter is underpinned by dynamic and complex processes, the drivers and impacts of which are multi-scalar, trans- boundary, and play out in both marine and terrestrial environments. These impacts include economic costs to expenditure, welfare and lost revenue. In most cases, these are not borne by the producers or the polluters. In industries such as fisher- ies and tourism the costs of marine litter are beginning to be quantified and are considerable. In other areas such as impacts on human health, or more intangible costs related to reduced ecosystem services, more research is evidently needed. As the costs of marine litter are most often used to cover removing debris or recov- ering from the damage which they have caused, this expenditure represents treat- ment rather than cure, and although probably cheaper than inaction do not present a strategy for cost reduction. Economic instruments, such as taxes and charges addressing the drivers of waste, for instance those being developed for plastic bags, could be used to reduce the production of marine litter and minimise its impacts. In any case, there remain big gaps in our understanding of the harm caused by marine litter, which presents difficulties when attempting to both quantify its economic costs, and develop effective and efficient instruments to reduce them.

  • Property a Law2112
    PROPERTY A LAW2112 FIXTURES V CHATTELS Define fixture: Chattels ‘so attached to the land’ it becomes a part of the land.’ Fixtures automatically pass with the conveyance of the land. o S18 Property Law Act (1958): land includes “…corporeal hereditaments...” i.e. fixtures o S38 Interpretation of Legislation Act (1984) – includes buildings and other structures permanently affixed to land. Define chattel: Personal property that can be moved, not affixed to the land. Chattels can become fixtures by a third party if they are the actual rights holder of the property. i.e. furniture, household appliances. Ø Doctrine of Fixtures Test 1. Identify who is arguing fixture, and who is arguing chattel. 2. Role of presumptions: “Whatever is affixed to the soil becomes part of the soil”. – NAB V Blacker (2000) If object is fixed to the land other than by its own weight, presumption it’s a fixture. (Belgrave) If object rests on its own weight, presumption it’s a chattel (Belgrave) i. If attachment, onus of evidence is on person who wants it to be a chattel (NAB) ii. If no attachment, onus is on person who wants it to be a fixture (NAB) 3. Consider: Was there already a contract in place detailing with the nature of the object in question? – If not, apply common law tests (BelgraVe; NAB). a. Degree of annexation test – Extent the chattel has been affixed to the land. i. Mode and structure of annexation: Degree to which it is annexed to the land. For example in Leigh v Taylor – tapestries were fastened to canvas by tracKs.

  • Energy Recovery from Sewage Sludge: the Case Study of Croatia
    energies Article Energy Recovery from Sewage Sludge: The Case Study of Croatia Dinko Đurđevi´c 1,* , Paolo Blecich 2 and Željko Juri´c 1 1 Energy Institute Hrvoje Požar, 10000 Zagreb, Croatia; [email protected] 2 Faculty of Engineering, University of Rijeka, 51000 Rijeka, Croatia; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 26 April 2019; Accepted: 16 May 2019; Published: 20 May 2019 Abstract: Croatia produced 21,366 tonnes of dry matter (DM) sewage sludge (SS) in 2016, a quantity expected to surpass 100,000 tonnes DM by 2024. Annual production rates for future wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) in Croatia are estimated at 5.8–7.3 Nm3/people equivalent (PE) for biogas and 20–25 kgDM/PE of sewage sludge. Biogas can be converted into 12–16 kWhel/PE of electricity and 19–24 kWhth/PE of heat, which is sufficient for 30–40% of electrical and 80–100% of thermal autonomy. The WWTP autonomy can be increased using energy recovery from sewage sludge incineration by 60% for electricity and 100% of thermal energy (10–13 kWhel/PE and 30–38 kWhth/PE). However, energy for sewage sludge drying exceeds energy recovery, unless solar drying is performed. 2 The annual solar drying potential is estimated between 450–750 kgDM/m of solar drying surface. The lower heating value of dried sewage sludge is 2–3 kWh/kgDM and this energy can be used for assisting sludge drying or for energy generation and supply to WWTPs. Sewage sludge can be considered a renewable energy source and its incineration generates substantially lower greenhouse gases emissions than energy generation from fossil fuels.

  • Landlord/Tenant Law
    LANDLORD/TENANT LAW Choices for Eviction When a landlord wants a resident to move out, certain procedures must be followed. This page provides a brief description of the various options available to landlords under Washington law. Each option has a specific legal process which must be followed. For a complete definition of eviction options and serving process, review the latest version of the Residential Landlord-Tenant Act for the State of WashingtonB Revised Code of Washington, Title 59. 1. FOR NOT PAYING RENT. If the resident is even one day behind in rent, the landlord can issue a three-day notice to pay rent or vacate. If the resident pays all the rent due within three days, the landlord must accept it and can not evict the resident. A landlord is not required to accept a partial payment. 2. FOR NOT COMPLYING WITH TERMS OF THE RENTAL AGREEMENT. If a resident is not complying with the rental agreement (for example, keeping a cat when the agreement specifies no pets or unauthorized people are living in the rental), the landlord can give a ten-day notice to comply or vacate. If the resident remedies the situation within that time, the landlord can not continue with the eviction process. 3. FOR CREATING A WASTE, NUISANCE, OR ILLEGAL ACTIVITY. If a resident destroys the landlord’s property, uses the premises for unlawful activity including drug-related activities, damages the value of the property or interferes with other resident’s use of the property, the landlord can issue a three-day notice for waste, nuisance or illegal activity.
