This article discusses the legalities which pertain specifically to hazardous waste cleanup. Topics of discussion include the following: threshold decisions: litigate or negotiate; forum issues--Federal or state court; claims in state court; and different types of damages and recovery. CERCLA is not the only grounds for recovery in environmental contamination cases. Common law and RCRA are also attractive.
