Federal and state policies can eliminate or significantly reduce penalties for non-compliance matters that are voluntarily discovered and disclosed by facility operators, and can protect documents and communications created during a voluntary compliance audit. However, the policies only apply if the facility meets specific qualifying criteria. Mallory Sparks will discuss these policies, including what the policies cover and what they do not at the Carolinas Air Pollution Control Association (CAPCA) 2023 Spring Meeting.

Mallory advises clients on environmental litigation and compliance. She has experience in federal and state courts, including with multidistrict litigation (MDL) involving per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). 

 CAPCA is made up of approximately 600 active members representing local, state and national air pollution control agencies; a wide variety of regulated industries; environmental consulting and testing firms; equipment manufacturers; related interest groups; and an interested general public.
