6.5 Regulatory LSRP CECs - Approved

Course Description:  This six-hour course examines the legal and regulatory requirements and opportunities/examples of LSRP use of Professional Judgment.
One of the basic differences imposed by passage of the Site Remediation Reform Act was the use of professional judgment by LSRPs. The law allows for the LSRP to issue variances from the Technical Requirements for Site Remediation and also allows the LSRP to employ alternatives to those detailed in Department Technical Guidance. This approach allows the professional greater flexibility in determining how sites are investigated and remediated.  However, when utilizing their professional judgment, it is incumbent on the LSRP to explain the validity of using variances or alternatives.  This program will examine the legal and regulatory requirements, the opportunities to use professional judgment, and examine cases where professional judgment was employed. A panel of LSRPs, attorneys, and NJDEP representatives will give their views on the appropriate use of professional judgment.  For more information and to register, visit: http://www.montclair.edu/csam/continuing-education-environmental-professionals/
