Edward L. Kropp
Of Counsel
Edward “Skipp” Kropp was born and raised in central Indiana and, after having spent a number of years in Ohio and West Virginia, where he is also licensed, relocated to Indianapolis in 2010 to continue his practice. He represents a number of Indiana clients, including the largest wastewater treatment operator in the state. Skipp has deep and broad environmental experience in the areas of air, water, and waste. As the former Chief of the WV DEP Office of Air Quality and former Deputy Director of the WV DEP, Skipp is a respected and serious environmental lawyer, with a hands-on approach to helping clients. That approach involves significant time working hand in glove with a number of trade associations in Indiana and Ohio. Skipp organizes an annual meeting among US EPA Region V, the environmental agencies in both Indiana and Ohio, and trade associations to discuss issues facing the regulated communities in both states.
Skipp’s clients depend on him to help them navigate environmental regulatory changes and to understand the impact on their operations and bottom line. In the unfortunate situation when a client is on the wrong side of regulation, Skipp helps them propose solutions, negotiate penalties, and obtain compliance. He enjoys being a lawyer who can help his clients stay in harmony with ever-changing environmental regulations.
