Webinar

Featuring:
Julius M. Redd, Principal, Beveridge & Diamond PC
Stacey Sublett Halliday, Principal, Beveridge & Diamond PC
Hilary T. Jacobs, Associate, Beveridge & Diamond PC

Description:
For the past year, federal officials have worked to implement a “whole government” approach to meeting environmental-justice goals, while numerous states have stepped up their own efforts. Much remains uncertain, however, about how pursuit of environmental justice will impact business and regulatory decisions on plant siting, permitting, construction, and other activities. Our speakers will look back at developments in 2021 and offer their strategic thoughts on the current legal and policy landscape and what’s around the corner.
