3:45-4:45pm   Panel Discussion: New Jersey Incentives for Sustainable Development

Vacant and contaminated properties blight neighborhoods, reduce the tax base, pose health risks and stymie local job creation. The good news is that housing, commercial development, recreational areas and solar energy have been developed successfully on remediated brownfield properties.  

 This panel will share the recipe for those successes.  We’ll discuss some financial and technical resources available to New Jersey municipalities and redevelopers to accomplish sustainable remediation and redevelopment.

Discussion will include a primer for municipalities on the exemptions offered to them under NJ's Site Remediation Reform Act (SRRA) for certain projects.

Panelists: 

  • Randall Solomon, Sustainable Jersey
  • Judy Karp, NJ Environmental Infrastructure Trust 
  • Trevor Shields, NJDEP, NJ Environmental Infrastructure Financing Program

  • Wanda Monahan Esq., Sedita, Campisano & Campisano, LLC & BCONE Board Member  
  • Geoff Forrest, LSRP, Dresdner Robin & BCONE Board Member

Moderator:  Jean Hamerman, Center For Creative Land Recycling (CCLR) 

4:45-5:45pm   Panel Discussion: Using the Marketplace to Drive Redevelopment  

New financial tools, insurance products and other risk management instruments, recent court decisions and advancements in cleanup methods and technology all impact the brownfield remediation and redevelopment industries.

This panel will discuss opportunities to put these tools together to assist with your projects.

Panelists: 

  • Gordon C. Duus, Esq., Partner,  Mandelbaum Salsburg
  • Mark Vigneri, ERFS 
  • Christopher Alviggi, Alliant Insurance Services Inc.
