Meanwhile, EPA is moving forward with several rulemakings that would regulate greenhouse gases under existing provisions of the Clean Air Act, and the courts have decided several climate change cases seeking injunctive relief and damages from greenhouse gas emitters. This program will examine whether there is a path toward sensible collective action on the international front, the shape of EPA regulation and Congressional deliberations, and the evolving role of the courts in addressing climate change matters. http://www2.nycbar.org/mp3/ClimateChange-5122010.MP3 Thu, 20 May 2010 19:00:00 GMT 28:12 Environmental, Law, Small Business Environmental, Small Business, EPA, New York City Bar, James R. Coyle, Riverkeeper New York City Bar Environmental Law Interviews Proposals to drill for natural gas in the Marcellus Shale formation have generated controversy. The New York State DEC (NYSDEC) has received extensive comments on a draft environmental impact statement (EIS). Concerns have been raised that the draft EIS does not adequately address a number of issues, including surface and ground water pollution, cumulative impacts, alternatives, and potential impacts to New York Citys drinking water supply. Commenters also have questioned NYSDECs plan not to issue comprehensive regulations. Others have suggested that the draft EIS goes too far, will set the highest bar in the country for industry, and does not suffer from shortcomings alleged by certain commenters. This program will examine the issues from all of these perspectives. http://www2.nycbar.org/mp3/Marcellus-Shale.mp3 Sun, 14 Mar 2010 19:00:00 GMT 28:12 Environmental, Law, Small Business Environmental, Small Business, EPA, New York City Bar, James R.
