California agencies are focusing on diligently enforcing environmental laws. Senior attorneys from four environmental agencies will share their perspectives on enforcement. The program will provide an opportunity to learn about agency priorities and how attorneys can effectively represent clients before those agencies.
Topics• Legal “nuts and bolts” of enforcement practice before administrative agencies
• Recent developments and future directions for agencies’ enforcement programs
• What to do (and to avoid) when representing clients in administrative enforcement proceedings
This is the first of a three part-series on environmental enforcement. Future programs will address enforcement of federal laws and enforcement of local laws.
