Assistant General Counsel (Installations and Environment)


The Assistant General Counsel (Installations and Environment) provides legal services to the Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Installations & Environment) and to the Office of the Chief of Naval Operations, both of whom are responsible for discharging the Department of the Navy's programs in environmental compliance and real property/facilities. The Assistant General Counsel and staff, including the Counsels to the Regional Environmental Coordinators (located at San Diego, California; Pearl Harbor, Hawaii; Bangor, Washington; and New Orleans, Louisiana) are the main focal points in the Department of the Navy for the delivery of these services throughout the Department, both afloat and ashore. The Assistant General Counsel also serves as the environmental law counselor to the General Counsel of the Navy. These lawyers deal with the entire panoply of environmental and real property statutes, including, the basic military leasing statute (10 U.S.C. § 2667), the Clean Air and Clean Water Acts, the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976, the Marine Protection, Research, and Sanctuaries Act of 1972, the Ocean Dumping Ban Act of 1988, and the Endangered Species Act of 1973. The Assistant General Counsel also is the principal legal advisor to the Departmental officials responsible for implementing approved recommendations for the closure or realignment of naval installations under the Defense Base Closure and Realignment Act of 1990. Likewise, the Assistant General Counsel is responsible for coordinating and providing, if necessary, appropriate training opportunities to both civilian and uniformed attorneys in the Department of the Navy throughout the world.
