On May 5, 2015, Daniel Bouchard, Managing Partner of Lavery’s Quebec City office and lawyer specialized in the fields of municipal, environmental and administrative law, gave a conference to about 10 business representatives at the Quebec Business Council on the Environment (CPEQ).
Entitled “La législation relative aux terrains contaminés” (Legislation related to contaminated fields), this conference answered frequently asked questions, namely if contaminating an already polluted land is considered pollution, the extent of the obligation to decontaminate, and a buyer’s recourses if he acquires a contaminated land, all within the frame of the current legislation.
