Lunch & Learn Webinar: Where San Francisco v. EPA Fits in Your Regulatory Strategy
Take a break and join us for the next installment of NACWA’s complimentary Lunch & Learn Webinar Series, Where San Francisco v. EPA Fits in Your Regulatory Strategy, Thursday, September 10, 1:00-2:00 PM ET, presented by Beveridge & Diamond.
The U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in City and County of San Francisco v. Environmental Protection Agency has significant implications for clean water agencies and other National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit holders. This Webinar will examine the ruling’s effect on permit obligations, how permitting authorities have responded to the decision, and the case’s impact on enforcement.
Drew Silton of Beveridge & Diamond, who led Beveridge & Diamond’s litigation team in San Francisco v. EPA, and Erika Spanton of Beveridge & Diamond will discuss what the decision means for NACWA members, with a focus on practical considerations for permitting, strategies for addressing problematic permit conditions, navigating a murky enforcement environment, and potential opportunities to modify certain Clean Water Act consent decrees. The program will offer clean water agencies a timely look at how to evaluate their existing permits and consent decrees in light of the Court’s ruling and prepare for upcoming permitting discussions.
