Brownfields Agreement

Apache-2.0United StatesEnvironmental

Drafts Brownfields Agreements for contaminated-property transactions under CERCLA, EPA brownfields programs, and state voluntary cleanup programs. Structures BFPP liability protections, All Appropriate Inquiries documentation, remediation obligations, institutional controls, cost allocation, and long-term stewardship covenants.

Drafting Agent

MITUnited StatesEnvironmental

Draft the formal legal instrument itself — a Clean Water Act §505 (or other citizen-suit) Notice of Intent to Sue, an administrative rulemaking petition, a deadline complaint, or a consent-decree settlement scaffold. Use this skill whenever the user wants to produce, fill in, or revise one of these instruments, or says things like "draft the notice," "write the petition," "put together the 60-day letter," "we need a complaint for the missed deadline," or "scaffold a settlement." Works from a completed Gap Analysis when one exists. Produces a clearly-marked DRAFT with judgment-call fields flagged for attorney review — never a filing-ready or signed document.

EPA Regulatory Skill (Envirofacts + ECHO + GHGRP + Subpart W)

MITUnited StatesEnvironmental

Use when preparing manifest packages for hazardous waste shipments, RCRA tracking documents, or waste disposal compliance filings.

Intake Agent

MITUnited StatesEnvironmental

The front door. Use this skill when a non-lawyer describes an environmental problem or situation in everyday terms and does not yet know which law, agency, or instrument applies — "the creek by us smells bad and the county keeps approving permits," "our air is bad near the refinery, what can we do," "who do we even complain to about a pipeline," "is there anything we can do about the landfill." It diagnoses the likely legal pathways and routes the user to the right next step. It never tells the user they have a case, never says a named party broke the law, never predicts outcomes — it identifies candidate pathways and hands off.

Invasive Testing Consent Letter (Phase II)

Apache-2.0United StatesEnvironmental

Drafts a Phase II invasive testing consent letter that limits scope, locations, timing, data control, restoration, security, and risk allocation under an existing access, due diligence, or purchase and sale agreement. Use this skill when a counterparty requests soil borings, test pits, groundwater wells, soil vapor sampling, or other intrusive ESA activities. Trigger on keywords including "Phase II," "invasive testing," "environmental site assessment," "ESA," "borings," "test pits," "monitoring wells," "restoration bond," "PLL insurance," "access agreement," "consent letter," "IDW handling," or "environmental due diligence." Even if the user just says "they want to do borings on the site" or "draft consent for Phase II," use this skill.

Mining and Land Use Regulatory Summary

Apache-2.0United StatesEnvironmental

Generates structured legal and regulatory summaries for mining and land use projects covering permits, environmental compliance, mineral rights, stakeholder obligations, and risk assessment. Use when summarizing mining regulations, land use permits, environmental compliance, mineral rights, natural resource extraction, reclamation obligations, or split estate disputes.

Notice of Violation Response

Apache-2.0United StatesEnvironmental

Use when responding to environmental enforcement actions, regulatory citations, compliance violations, or governmental NOVs from agencies including EPA, OSHA, state environmental departments, or local code enforcement.

NPDES Permit Application

Apache-2.0United StatesEnvironmental

Drafts NPDES permit applications under the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. § 1342) for facilities discharging pollutants into U.S. waters. Covers initial, renewal, and modification applications with discharge characterization, treatment descriptions, water quality analysis, and monitoring programs. Use when drafting NPDES permits, discharge authorizations, point source permits, or CWA compliance filings.

Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Report

Apache-2.0United StatesEnvironmental

Drafts ASTM E1527-21 environmental site assessment reports under 40 CFR Part 312. Classifies RECs, CRECs, and HRECs to establish all appropriate inquiries for CERCLA liability protection. Trigger when the user requests a Phase I ESA, environmental site assessment, recognized environmental conditions analysis, ASTM E1527 compliance, or environmental due diligence for property transactions or lending.

Pipeline Conductor

MITUnited StatesEnvironmental

The conductor. Use this skill when a user wants the whole OSED process run end-to-end on an environmental concern — "take my situation through the whole process," "run the full pipeline and put together the package," "do all the steps," "I described the problem, now build the package for my attorney." It runs intake → Gap Analysis → Drafting ↔ Precedent Retrieval → Plain-Language, carries each artifact into the next, and assembles a single flagged DRAFT case package with a consolidated attorney checklist. It automates the handoffs only — it never resolves a judgment call, never decides the merits, and always stops at a licensed attorney.

Plain-Language Agent

MITUnited StatesEnvironmental

Translate a legal pathway, instrument, or doctrine into plain terms a non-lawyer can actually act on — a community group, a county commission, an organizer, a concerned resident. Use this skill whenever the user wants a legal concept explained for a lay audience, asks "what does this mean for us," "explain standing in plain English," "how would a community group actually use a state environmental rights act," or needs an instrument or process made legible without jargon. Especially apt for state environmental-rights-act pathways and citizen-suit mechanics. Explains and clarifies; never gives legal advice, predicts outcomes, or tells the reader they have a case.

SPCC Plan Drafting

Apache-2.0United StatesEnvironmental

Drafts a Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan compliant with 40 CFR Part 112 under the Clean Water Act. Covers facility characterization, oil storage inventory, secondary containment, prevention measures, response procedures, training, and PE certification language. Use when drafting SPCC plans, oil spill prevention documents, or EPA compliance submissions.

Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP)

Apache-2.0United StatesEnvironmental
