Unlike many governmental agencies, the EPA is right on the spot within hours! In examining the backyard to see where the flower water was dumped, the inspector pokes down into the ground with a probe. Low and behold, he hears a hollow thump and when the EPA further investigates, they find that there was a gas tank under the building that had been improperly capped in the 50’s, and that gas has been leaking into the ground for the last 40 years. Abby had no idea, nor did Linda’s estate lawyers–after all this time, they have no records to indicate when or who capped the tank.

Every team has the same question–who is liable? And to whom? Your group decisions should contain carefully reasoned legal arguments.
