摘要

Sarbanes-Oxley, enacted to address the financial scandals of the late 1990s, reaches beyond traditional securities law and has significant effects on environmental managers and environmental consultants. The presentation will discuss the direct effects that Sarbanes-Oxley has on environmental disclosures (10-K and 10-Q), the practical implications in dealing with auditors and environmental consultants and the new criminal provisions. Under Sarbanes-Oxley, dealing with auditors and senior management has become a more complicated task for the environmental managers. Financial auditors (internal and external) are requiring detailed documentation to support environmental disclosures. Setting of reserves and, more importantly, the justification of existing reserves are also areas where environmental professionals are becoming more involved. The presentation will discuss how environmental managers should respond to the new requirements. Sarbanes-Oxley also is having an effect on environmental attorneys/consultants in the preparation of audit letter responses and 10-K and 10-Q disclosures. As Sarbanes-Oxley now requires the CEO and CFO to personally certify disclosure documents, outside environmental professionals are being required to certify information (such as estimates of cleanup costs) used for financial disclosure purposes. This potentially imposes substantial liability on the outside environmental professional. Practical tips on how to address these concerns will be discussed. Finally, the presentation will discuss the hidden provisions of Sarbanes-Oxley, such as the new crimes of conspiracy, the stringent requirements for maintaining documents, email and voice mails that apply when U.S. EPA investigates a company.
