Product Description
Serious environmental and land use attorneys know that MCLE’s Annual Environmental, Land Use & Energy Law Conference is “the place to be” on February 6th. Join your colleagues at this premier event to learn what happened in the legislature, state agencies, and courts, and what’s new at the municipal level. Find out what you need to know for your clients and your career, and catch up on what you missed during this busy year.
The Conference is designed for attorneys who specialize in, and those who are brand new to, the field, as well as attorneys who occasionally encounter these issues in their practices. The panelists survey the critical new developments in each of the major fields of environmental law, energy law, land use, and related litigation.
For those who have attended the Conference in prior years, attending annually refreshes your knowledge and helps keep you up-to-date on the latest developments. And for those new to the Conference, attending is a great way to broaden and deepen your knowledge by learning from well-known experts who have been tracking trends, cases, and statutory changes of which you need to be aware.
Keep track of court decisions, current regulations, and pending bills—and spot new ideas for your federal, state, or local practice. Among the topics covered this year are surveys of important court decisions, new programs at EPA and MassDEP, and presentations on key energy law trends of practical note to attorneys. The agenda concludes with a roundup of significant evolving practice areas affecting environmental and land use clients.
Hear the Featured Speaker, Anne L. Kelly, Vice President, Government Relations, Ceres, share her perspective on “The Changing Climate for Business and Government.” She discusses the opportunities, challenges, and risks posed by climate change—and how they may affect the arc of environmental, energy, and land use law.
