Clean Water Webinar Spotlight: Lessons Learned from the Supreme Court's Maui Decision

Google Alerts - "climate change" disaster "greenhouse gas" 2020-06-02

Summary:

In April, the U.S. Supreme Court finally weighed in with an answer to a longstanding question about what kinds of pollution discharges rise to the level of a "point source" and require a permit under the Clean Water Act. The Court dipped its toes into some muddied waters, as this question has been the subject of a range of decisions in the lower courts for decades, with little consensus. Panelists on the Center for Progressive Reform's May 28 clean water webinar examined the Supreme Court's opinion and its possible implications for water quality protections.
