ALI CLE to Offer Annual Course Providing an In-Depth Look at Key Developments in the Clean Air Act
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 15, 2015 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- American Law Institute Continuing Legal Education is pleased to announce the return of The Clean Air Act: New Directions in Law, Policy, and Practice, a nationally-recognized conference that provides a comprehensive analysis of the most complex issues faced by regulators and practitioners. Set in Washington, DC at Hunton & Williams, this program will be held Thursday - Friday, October 22 - 23, 2015.
As we near the final year of President Obama's second term, EPA is moving aggressively on a wide range of regulatory activities under the Clean Air Act to leave the this Administration's imprint with lasting effects on environmental, energy, and economic policy. He has declared the final version of the Clean Power Plan the "biggest, most important step we've ever taken to combat climate change."
Our premiere panel of experts will engage registrants in a robust discussion of the most significant topics including Ozone, interstate transport and other ambient air standards issues and implementation; EPA's clean power plan and other greenhouse gas developments; and Title II: Motor vehicles, engines, aircraft, fuels and renewables. From the climate negotiations in Paris to the steps of the Supreme Court, from the coal plants in Kentucky to the emission credit auctions in California, the Clean Air Act is the foundation for the most vibrant environmental initiatives in the nation.
"Our faculty is comprised of nationally and internationally known clean air experts including officials at the most senior levels of the EPA and Justice Department, the U.S. Congress, in-house counsel from some of the nation's most respected companies and environmental stakeholders from across the spectrum of interests," said planning chair Peter Hsiao of Morrison & Foerster LLP in Los Angeles.
An optional introductory lecture on the structure and substance of the Act is presented on Thursday morning for the benefit of people unfamiliar with the Act or interested in a refresher.
