If any #environmentallaw folks think they may want to file an amicus brief in this environmental whistleblower Dept of Labor ARB appeal, a summary of the questions for appeal is included below!

If Apple wins this appeal, they will change federal #CERCLA #whistleblower protection law to narrow coverage by about 95%, as well as put the other env whistleblower statues at risk for the same.

Here's a link to the Dept of Labor site with info on the ARB #amicus brief process: https://www.dol.gov/agencies/arb/resources/amicus-briefs

Effective 2/13/2023, #EPA has amended its all appropriate inquiries rule. The rule provides a process for evaluating a property’s environmental conditions & assessing potential liability for any contamination to obtain certain protections from liability under #CERCLA. The amendment references ASTM E1527-21, Standard Practice for Environmental Site Assessments: Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Process, which replaces ASTM E1527-13. https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2022/12/15/2022-27044/standards-and-practices-for-all-appropriate-inquiries
