The primary purpose of Great Rivers Environmental Law Center is to provide public interest legal services to organizations, citizens' groups and individuals who seek to protect the environment and public health.
Great Rivers Environmental Law Center works through the courts and administrative agencies to safeguard the environment by enforcing environmental laws, especially air and water pollution laws, and laws intended to protect wetlands, floodplains, open space, and endangered species.
The issues which we address often have national significance, although the majority of our work is within Missouri and Illinois.
Cases will be accepted where there is a broad public interest involved and the client's financial interest in the outcome is insufficient to justify retention of a private law firm. less
