Regulatory and Legal Services | Environmental Remediation & Consulting

Regulatory and Legal

HCR continues to provide, as it has for over 40 years, regulatory and legal support in conjunction with providing innovative and practical business solutions to it’s clients. HCR’s over 150 employees maintain strong relationships with regulators in each strategically located office.

HCR meets frequently with regulators and other staff to share information which advances the needs of our clients. The lessons learned through best practices are shared with the state and our clients to improve site and portfolio management while reducing costs and securing site closures.

Because regulatory and legal support issues are extremely complex and frequently confidential, HCR manages all communications to facilitate intimate customer relationships and to protect the privacy of our clients while providing the best regulatory and legal advice. HCR enjoys strong relationships with all regulators based on mutual trust developed over the many years we have worked together.

The regulatory guidance provided by HCR staff is based upon their solid knowledge of state-specific regulatory requirements and guidelines coupled with years of hands-on experience with both the regulations and the regulators. This enhances our ability to cost effectively ensure regulatory compliance and the quickest possible resolution of your site or portfolio issues.

The HCR legal team is a group of experts that provide and coordinate national support for securing the resolution of client needs and issues. This team can provide research, expert/fact witnesses, environmental insurance acquisition guidance, and support for a variety of industrial issues that clients may face.
