Practice Areas

ANDREW STEWART is a partner in the firm’s Environmental practice group. He is a former senior official from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), who helps clients solve a broad range of compliance and enforcement issues. Andrew focuses his practice on complex, high-stakes environmental matters, where an insider’s knowledge of the regulatory process is particularly important. These representations include enforcement matters, involving the EPA, state agencies, and the Department of Justice that arise under multiple environmental laws.

With more than 25 years of experience in Environmental law, he handles matters arising under all major federal environmental laws, as well as state laws, including the Clean Air Act, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act, and Toxic Substances Control Act. His work includes assisting clients in the oil and gas, chemical manufacturing, life sciences, and e-commerce industries on permitting requirements, counseling on critical environmental obligations, and defense of government enforcement and citizen suit actions. Andrew counsels clients on addressing site impacts under federal environmental laws and permits, as well as reporting and other obligations under RCRA, the Comprehensive Environmental, Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), and the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA). He regularly advises companies on making voluntary disclosures under both the U.S. EPA Audit Policy and state voluntary disclosure programs.
