The Morgan Lewis Litigation Practice's Toxic Tort, Environmental, Construction and Insurance Recovery Group prepares the Environmental Deskbook each year as a convenient reference source for our clients. Each Deskbook is designed to assist client attorneys who are experts in environmental law and others who are encountering the environmental regulatory framework, or some portions of it, for the first time. The annual Deskbook features lead articles on recent trends in environmental litigation, and also updated versions of the following sections: a regulatory calendar of selected environmental compliance deadlines; citations to environmental regulations in the Code of Federal Regulations; a description of Morgan Lewis' environmental practice and capabilities; an overview of federal environmental statutes; and an in-depth look at California environmental programs.  If you would like to receive a copy of the Environmental Deskbook, please send an e-mail to:  leaton@morganlewis.com.
