ENVIRONMENT LAW OCTOBER 2010 NEWSLETTER
Tuesday, November 30, 2010
2010 has seen an exponential increase in the number of directives and compliance notices issued and criminal prosecutions threatened and instituted for environmental and water related crimes. In the BG environment team we have seen this both from the increasing number of our clients facing enforcement action and from the general atmosphere regarding environmental enforcement in the press.

MAXIMUM EMISSIONS LIMITS AND LICENSING REQUIREMENTS INTRODUCED
Thursday, May 27, 2010
Recent developments in South African air quality legislation have heralded substantial changes in air quality management by introducing maximum emissions limits and amendments to activities requiring licences. These developments resulted from the entry into force on April 1 2010 of various sections of the National Environmental Management: Air Quality Act 2004. The act's predecessor, the atmospheric Pollution Prevention Act 1965, is now wholly repealed.

Bowman Gilfillan is proud to be one of the first large commercial firms to develop and implement a comprehensive pro bono policy. In accordance with this policy we pursue meritorious public-law cases and act for indigent clients in a number of ongoing matters. As a responsible corporate citizen, Bowman Gilfillan encourages its practitioners to seek to provide legal services to deserving organisations and individuals on a pro bono (free) basis. A number of pro bono matters have been taken on in a wide variety of fields, from education to healthcare and other social services and partnerships have been established with recognised public interest legal services providers such as the Legal Resources Centre and the Aids Law Project.

Bowman Gilfillan has also entered into an arrangement with CIDA City Campus, particularly in business subjects, in terms of which we prepare the lecture materials for, and present lectures to, their second year students. We also provide CIDA with legal advice. All of this is done free of any charge, as part of our social responsibility programme.
