Webinar
Kathryn Floyd presented on a webinar panel, “EPA's Expanded "Waters of the U.S." Definition: Navigating the Unprecedented Reach and Scope of New Rule,” on May 28.
The panel provided environmental counsel with an in depth review of the EPA's newly proposed revision that widely expands the reach of its rule defining "waters of the United States." The panel examined the huge number of entities, businesses and local governments that will be impacted and how—and the expected legal challenges that the rule change will precipitate. The panel outlined and analyzed practical next steps for counsel in moving forward with transactions involving waters under and not yet under EPA control.
