Litigation related to plastics and microplastic pollution is on the rise. Plaintiffs have brought claims under numerous theories of liability. The state of New York’s common law nuisance claims against PepsiCo were recently met with disdain.

Superfund Sites are notorious for taking a long time to resolve. But are they ever really closed? Superfund settlements are intended to provide settling parties with finality. The incorporation of reopener clauses in Superfund settlement agreements, typically required by EPA, and changes in the regulation of contaminants can undermine this goal.
