On Tuesday, June 6, 2023, representatives of the LSPA made their fourth visit in seven years before the Joint Committee on Financial Services in support of the LSPA’s bills that would mandate insurance coverage for the remediation of home heating oil releases. Earlier versions of these two identical bills, H. 1129 and S. 648, have been favorably reported out of this committee in the last three sessions; we’re hoping for the same this session.
Written and oral testimony was presented in support of these bills by environmental attorney Susan Crane, her client Paul Guerard, LSP and LSPA Past President Kevin Beaulieu, and LSPA Executive Director Wendy Rundle.
