Designed for non-specialists, the "Environmental Law Handbook" explains the important ways in which environmental law affects everyday property, financial and business transactions. Focusing on how environmental law applies within particular contexts, the book covers the major liabilities, ways of maximizing protection for clients, insurance against the main risks and the use of environmental consultants. Also included are sample clauses and agreements, useful contacts and addresses as well as a comprehensive index. This edition includes coverage of: the repeal and replacement of Part 1 of the Environmental Protection Act 1990; the contaminated land regime; developments in EU law; the relevant implications of both the Public Interest Disclosure Act 1998 and the Human Rights Act 1998; the Pollution Prevention and Control Act 1999; and the position on Environment Agency searches. The list of relevant EU legislation has been completely revised and updated.  Two appendices have been added to aid the practitioner - a "Suggested Agreement on Liabilities", dealing with the apportionment of liability for contaminated land, and a comprehensive list of useful contacts and addresses, including relevant websites.
