Description:
EMLC is a non-profit lawfirm dedicated to protecting communities and the environment from the adverse impacts of energy development. EMLC is the only organization of its kind focused exclusively on mitigating or eliminating the impacts from mining, processing, disposal, transportation, and development of our countries' next generation of energy minerals--including uranium, coal, and synthetic/nonconventional fuels (/e.g./ oil shale and tar sands). EMLC represents clients before federal and state court, and administrative agencies, challenging specific mining proposals, as well as more general challenges to government regulations. EMLC works directly with WMAP's Director, Roger Flynn, and Senior Attorney Jeff Parsons, on uranium issues and consults with WMAP on coal and other cases. EMLC's legal team offers established legal expertise in matters of environmental protection and bring extensive experience representing and advising grassroots community groups and national networks.
