In addition business leaders, attorneys, as well as insurance and risk management experts will address the increasing financial risks and liabilities confronting the environmental health and safety community.

Co-sponsored and organized by Dave Goett of Affiliated-EHS, Inc. and David Quinn of the National Alliance Environmental Specialists (NAESIP, LLC), the conference will address such issues as: indoor air quality; indoor environmental quality; sick buildings and building related illness; as well as green buildings and their place within industrial hygiene.
