SUMMARY:SHALE GAS LAW 2019
DESCRIPTION:Attorneys Kip Power and Shannon Rutherford will present “Clean Water Act Sections 401\, 404 and 505: Citizen Suits Based on Water Quality Certifications for Energy Projects\,” at WVU College of Law’s Shale Gas Law 2019 on November 8-9\, 2019. \nA state must issue a water quality certification under Clean Water Act Section 401 in order to make effective any federal permit issued under other Clean Water Act provisions that authorize discharges into waters of the United States. Energy projects often require permits under Clean Water Act Section 404 to allow the lawful placement of fill material into jurisdictional waters. Pursuant to Clean Water Act Section 505\, citizen suits may be commenced against entities that are in violation of an “effluent standard or limitation\,” including “certification under [Clean Water Act Section 401].” This presentation will explore the extent to which conditions that are attached to Section 401 Certifications may serve as a basis for Clean Water Act citizen suits\, and the ramifications of this potential exposure for those seeking to construct energy projects.

SUMMARY:Aftermarket Defeat Devices: Enforcing & Mitigating Mobile Air Pollution
DESCRIPTION:Attorney Julie Domike will be a panelist for the Environmental Law Institute’s “Aftermarket Defeat Devices: Enforcing & Mitigating Mobile Air Pollution” webinar on Tuesday\, April 21\, 2020. \nEnforcing mobile source pollution\, such as from motor vehicles\, has become increasingly challenging as consumers and industry have turned to aftermarket “defeat devices” that may provide perceived benefits like enhanced fuel efficiency but exacerbate the emission of air pollutants. Mobile sources account for a significant portion of air pollution\, including approximately two-thirds of carbon monoxide (CO)\, three-fifths of nitrous oxide (NOx)\, and one-fourth of volatile organic compounds (VOC). While the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulates these pollutants from vehicles\, aftermarket defeat devices intentionally remove or alter the hardware\, software\, or other designs that regulate the emissions controls of a motor vehicle. \nWhile vehicle manufacturers utilizing defeat devices grab headlines\, aftermarket parts and software are less conspicuous. According to EPA\, over 500\,000 diesel pickup trucks since 2009 have installed aftermarket defeat devices resulting in the equivalent air quality impact of adding 9 million pickup trucks to roads. Moreover\, these devices are prevalent in heavy-duty trucks\, light-duty cars\, agriculture equipment\, forestry equipment\, and construction equipment\, among others. \nWhat are the major drivers of demand for aftermarket defeat devices? How can the states curtail the demand for these devices? What policy measures is the EPA taking to mitigate aftermarket defeat devices? Join the Environmental Law Institute and expert panelists to explore these questions and policies to mitigate aftermarket defeat devices. \nFor more information\, click here.

SUMMARY:Regulatory Relief:  Federal and State Environmental Responses to the COVID-19 National Emergency
DESCRIPTION:Attorneys Sean McGovern\, Ben Clapp and Gary Steinbauer will co-present “Regulatory Relief: Federal and State Environmental Responses to the COVID-19 National Emergency” as a webinar for the Energy and Mineral Law Foundation (EMLF) on Wednesday\, July 15\, 2020. \nThe COVID-19 national emergency has required many critical businesses to make significant changes to continue operating safely. Recognizing that these COVID-19 related modifications have made compliance with environmental regulatory and settlement-related obligations more challenging\, or in some cases impossible\, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and certain States have issued policies to address environmental compliance during the COVID-19 crisis. This presentation will cover key components of the EPA and select state (PA\, OH\, WV) policies\, and will address important considerations for developing environmental compliance strategies during the ongoing pandemic. \nFor more information\, click here. \nSean McGovern \nBen Clapp \nGary Steinbauer
