Ken L. Frank of Chevron Environmental Management Company Speaker 14: 9<br />

Avoid Litigation<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

Eliminate so-called “non-use” or “passive use” values (e.g. use of the<br />

contingent valuation method)<br />

Interim losses can be compensated by providing substantially<br />

equivalent substitute public uses or ecologic functions, rather than<br />

monetized damages<br />

Any legal proceedings to recover <strong>NRD</strong> shall be by trial de novo<br />

(affording defendants the right to introduce evidence) and the trustees<br />

should have the burden of proving their damages by a preponderance<br />

of the evidence<br />
