Carl Everett has been practicing environmental law for more than 35 years, focusing on CERCLA, regulatory compliance, enforcement matters brought under federal and state environmental statutes, and tort litigation. Mr. Everett serves as common counsel to PRP groups involved in CERCLA remediation projects at the French Limited site in Crosby, Texas, the Galaxy/Spectron site in Elkton, Maryland, and the Blosenski site in West Caln, Pennsylvania.

As part of his practice, Mr. Everett counsels clients on environmental permit requirements under state and federal law, including new source review, hazardous air pollutant rules and developments related to climate change under the Clean Air Act and storm water control and total maximum daily load programs under the Clean Water Act. He also helps landowners and developers secure liability protections under brownfield programs. He is a frequent presenter at many professional and business seminars.

Before entering private practice in 1986, Mr. Everett was a Senior Counsel in the Legal Department of E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Company. While with DuPont, he was involved in appeals of the ozone standard and the Ohio State Implementation Plan for Sulfur Dioxide under the Clean Air Act and in appeals of effluent guidelines for inorganic and pesticide manufacturing facilities and consolidated permit regulations under the Clean Water Act. Mr. Everett also participated in chemical industry activities directed toward amendments to the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act, and CERCLA. At various times, he provided counsel with respect to air, water, and waste matters at numerous DuPont facilities in the U.S. and Puerto Rico.
