The 27th Annual Tulane Law and Policy Summit: The New Waters of the United States Rule

This year marks the 50th anniversary of the Clean Water Act, one of America’s most significant tools for improving and managing the quality of the “waters of the United States”. One might imagine that after such a long time its reach and application would be pretty well figured out. Hardly. Instead of being settled, the question of what the law covers is perhaps more confused and controversial today than at any time in the past. With action on the political, administrative and jurisprudential fronts the stakes are high and uncertain. This panel will try to read explain how we got here and read the tea leaves about what lies ahead. Featuring panelists: Mark Davis, Director, Tulane Institute on Water Resources and Policy; Jim Murphy, Director of Legal Advocacy, National Wildlife Federation; Larry Liebesman, Senior Advisor, Dawson & Associates.
