The speakers on the panel will:

• Provide environmental counsel with an in depth review of the EPA’s newly proposed revision that widely expands the reach of its rule defining "waters of the United States"

• Outline and analyze practical next steps for counsel in moving forward with transactions involving waters under and not yet under EPA control 

After the presentation, the speakers will engage in a live question and answer session with participants to answer questions about these important issues directly.
