The year 2016 has already been a very busy wetland regulation year. Since January the Sixth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has had additional rulings on the proposed Clean Water Rule. The US Army Corps of Engineers has released its proposed Nationwide Permits for 2017. The US Supreme Court has decided a very important Jurisdictional Determination case. We have even had a recent out of court settlement that required public comment with the EPA over a farm pond issue with national implications. To add to this confusion Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy recently called the Clean Water Act “arguably unconstitutionally vague.”
Before we wade in any deeper into 2016, we thought it might be appropriate to host a mid-year webinar on these topics and a few more. Don’t forget we also have a new National Wetland Plant list to work with.
We also added a new feature to this webinar. By now you may already have questions and insights about these new wetland and waters issues. We will invite you to send us these thoughts ahead of the webinar so that we will be able to incorporate them into the discussion. A special discussion portal will be provided in advance that you can not only send us you topics but also discuss them with your peers before and after the webinar.
Join us on July 7, 2016 at 1 PM EDT to participate in this important webinar. Don’t worry if you can’t make the live broadcast. A recorded version will be made available to everyone who registers for the live session and will remain active for 30 days.
