Overview
Event Details
Steptoe's Second Annual Regulatory Symposium, originally planned for May 2020, is going virtual! Rather than host another half-day program, we've divided the symposium into four separate offerings. We hope you'll join us!
Infrastructure Streamlining and Funding - What's New and What's Next?
Date: Thursday, September 24, 2020
Time: 1:00 p.m. - 2:00 p.m. EDT
Infrastructure streamlining and funding has been a major focus both at the White House and on the Hill. This webinar will explore the opportunities and challenges involved with permitting streamlining tools put in place by the Trump administration, including major changes to the NEPA regulations and Clean Water Act permitting program. We will also discuss federal credit and funding programs, including public-private partnerships (P3s), and how those federal funding tools intersect with permitting.
Speakers:
- Jim Barnette, Partner in Steptoe's Government Affairs & Public Policy Group
- Morteza Farajian, Executive Director of the Build America Bureau at USDOT (the Bureau)
- David Fotouhi, Principal Deputy General Counsel, US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
- Mary Neumayr, Chairman, Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ)
- Cynthia Taub, Partner in Steptoe's Chemical and Life Sciences Group
