Join SDNEDC for an annual update on CEQA changes and what changes have occurred through statute and case law. The year ahead is going to see significant shifts in respect to how local jurisdictions will measure traffic impacts, mitigate greenhouse gas emissions, and analyze the environmental impacts of projects proposed close to transit lines. Environmental justice has become even more important in environmental law. If your company is undertaking an expansion or considering new construction, it is important to understand the legal landscape so as to avoid delays and ensure timely completion. Join us to hear from Daniel Brunton and Clif Williams from Latham and Watkins LLP , to learn more about the year ahead in CEQA and how to best prepare and think about CEQA issues to develop a defensible analysis and better position projects to weather challenges.
