Overview

Why you should attend

Environmental regulation entered a new world with the election of President Barack Obama.  New environmental laws have been enacted, new environmental regulations have been promulgated, and courts have issued precedent-setting environmental decisions.  Even with all of these recent changes, the regulatory agenda of the Obama Administration and Congress remains robust.  Significant new regulations or legislation and other initiatives are anticipated in the fields of climate change, chemicals regulation, disaster response, air and water regulation, vapor intrusion and other areas important to the business community.

This program focuses on recent regulatory developments in the environmental arena and new changes that are on the horizon.  The program provides insights on how corporations manage compliance in a dynamic new regulatory environment.  Seasoned practitioners, senior government officials and experienced environmental consultants will provide practical advice on new regulatory requirements and managing in the face of rapid change and uncertainty.
