COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH
ELT is able to combine multiple elements of site closure into ONE comprehensive value proposition. This strategy provides the seller with more favorable transaction terms and streamline plant retirement, which has traditionally been an arduous and cost-intensive process.

 

TRACK RECORD
Since 1990, our group has assumed nearly $2 billion USD in corporate environmental liabilities, managed the environmental cleanup of over 300 properties (90% of which have reached final milestones), and has never defaulted on an obligation or given a site back to the seller / transferer. This track record is critical when choosing a partner for environmental risk and liability management.

 

RISK MANAGEMENT
As it pertains to Brownfield and Superfund sites, effective management of environmental and financial risk is essential. ELT evaluates the property condition, the potential transaction structure and the liability concerns of both itself and its client. Risk management factors include the selection of remedy, assumption of regulatory requirements, legal structure, insurance, and indemnification. This proven approach has effectively limited environmental risk to a highly-efficient, cost-effective vehicle for environmental liability transfer.
