Mark advised clients on a wide range of environmental regulatory and enforcement matters, arising under chemical, pesticide, air, hazardous waste and reporting statutes. He had been especially proficient in helping clients face environmental challenges to existing commercial products and in helping clients navigate regulatory reviews necessary to bring new technologies to market. He also developed a national reputation in matters involving public disclosure of environmental information.

Before joining Ropes & Gray in 1994, Mark worked for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for over 16 years.  He held a variety of senior positions in the Office of General Counsel, managing legal issues in areas as diverse as pesticides, toxic chemicals, hazardous waste management, Superfund, and environmental reporting.  From 1990-94, he was Director of the Office of Pollution Prevention and Toxics, the arm of EPA concerned with regulation of chemicals in commerce, biotechnology, public “right to know” programs and pollution prevention.
