Jayni Hein and Kevin Poloncarz will be attending California Lawyer's Associations 34th Annual Environmental Law Conference. The Environmental Law Conference at Yosemite® is nationally recognized as the largest and most prestigious gathering in California of leaders in environmental, land use, and natural resources law. We hope you will join us and many of our nation’s top environmental officials, lawyers, and other professionals for four days of legal education and collegiality in Yosemite.

On October 17 Jayni’s panel, "Is NEPA Dead? Seven County, CEQ Regulations, and the role for CEQA and other state NEPAs" will address recent efforts to streamline NEPA and exempt various federal actions from NEPA review. The panel will cover the Seven County Infrastructure Coalition, et al. v. Eagle County Colorado Supreme Court decision and its likely repercussions for NEPA litigation and the scope of environmental review. Panelists will also discuss how, if at all, state NEPAs, including CEQA, can fill any gaps that emerge.

On October 19 Kevin's panel, "Putting Up a Fight: California’s Environmental Litigation Against the Second Trump Administration Sunday" will provide an overview of the litigation efforts touching on climate, air, water, and electrification and offer insights from the trenches.
