SUMMARY:Understanding PFAS Training
DESCRIPTION:Babst Calland joins the Marcellus Shale Coalition for its “Understanding PFAS Training” on Thursday\, June 22\, 2023. Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a group of man-made chemicals that include PFOA\, PFOS\, GenX\, and many other chemicals that all contain fluorine. PFAS have been manufactured and used by a variety of industries for the production of many consumer products around the globe\, including the United States since the 1940s. In recent years\, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PADEP) have promulgated regulations\, guidance and new maximum contaminate levels (MCLs) in an attempt to reduce the use of these chemicals and increase environmental cleanup standards. This training will provide a general overview and understanding of the chemistry surrounding PFAS-related chemicals while discussing sampling and analysis. \nEnvironmental Attorney Matt Wood will present on “The Regulatory Landscape: Intersection of Federal and State Standards.” For more information\, click here.

SUMMARY:The Newly Finalized WOTUS Definition and How it Will Affect Your Operations
DESCRIPTION:Environmental Attorney Lisa Bruderly will present “The Newly Finalized WOTUS Definition and How it Will Affect Your Operations” to members of the Energy & Mineral Law Foundation (EMLF) on Thursday\, September 21\, 2023. The U. S. Supreme Court’s Sackett v. U.S. EPA decision\, issued in May 2023\, significantly narrowed the definition of “waters of the United States” (WOTUS) and limited the scope of federally-regulated waters and wetlands. A new regulatory definition of WOTUS\, based on Sackett\, became final on September 8th. During this webinar\, Lisa will discuss the Sackett decision\, the new regulatory definition of WOTUS\, and how these developments will impact the construction of new facilities and operation/maintenance of existing facilities. She will also explore the status of existing challenges to the prior definition of WOTUS and new challenges to the most recently-finalized definition.  For more information\, click here.

SUMMARY:2023 EMLF Fall Symposium
DESCRIPTION:Babst Calland joins the Energy & Mineral Law Foundation (EMLF) for its Annual Fall Symposium\, October 10-12\, 2023. \nPipeline Attorney Keith Coyle will present “PHMSA LDAR Rulemaking: What’s Proposed and What’s Next.” On May 18\, 2023\, the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) published a proposed rule in the Federal Register that includes significant changes to the reporting requirements in 49 C.F.R. Part 191 and safety standards in 49 C.F.R. Parts 192 for gas pipeline facilities. PHMSA proposed these changes primarily to address certain provisions in the Protecting our Infrastructure of Pipelines and Enhancing Safety Act of 2020\, including a congressional mandate to establish new leak detection and repair (LDAR) requirements for gas distribution lines\, transmission lines\, and certain gathering lines. In this session\, Keith will provide an overview of the key provisions in the proposed LDAR rule and discuss the next steps in the rulemaking process.

SUMMARY:Preparation for Zoning Hearings Post Brookview Solar: How the Commonwealth Court’s Recent Decision Changed What you Need to Bring to Win
DESCRIPTION:Attorney Anna Skipper Jewart will present “Preparation for Zoning Hearings Post Brookview Solar: How the Commonwealth Court’s Recent Decision Changed What You Need to Bring to Win” to Pennsylvania Aggregates and Concrete Association’s (PACA) members during their monthly forum meeting on Thursday\, February 8\, 2024. \nOn November 30\, 2023\, the Commonwealth Court decided Brookview Solar I\, LLC v. Mount Joy Township Board of Supervisors\, No. 1055 CD 2022\, 2023 WL 8264544 (Pa. Cmwlth. Nov. 30\, 2023). That case makes zoning applicant’s jobs harder in four key ways. First\, it held that if a zoning ordinance requires a demonstration of compliance with issues typically handled during land development (like stormwater management)\, the applicant cannot wait until a later phase of approval to show it will comply down the line. Second\, if the ordinance requires submission of a report or analysis prepared by an expert\, the applicant must make an expert available for cross examination or the report may be rejected. Third\, evidence of compliance with a zoning ordinance based on hypothetical data may not be enough to show compliance with the ordinance. Fourth\, applicants need to be ready to rebut objectors’ evidence that their use would be a detriment to the health\, safety\, and welfare of the community\, even if the evidence submitted is speculative. This presentation will discuss how this case changes what applicants need to be ready to bring to a conditional use or special exception hearing. For more information\, click here.
