Water Power Week

In this fast-paced session, attendees will get an up-to-the-minute report on legal and regulatory issues of importance to the waterpower community, including new, emerging policies and their potential impact. Discussion items include: the status of legal cases involving Section 401 of the Clean Water Act; FERC’s work and upcoming technical conference on requiring additional financial assurance mechanisms in licenses; and the Biden Administration’s Justice40 initiative that calls for federal funding, including investments in energy and the environment, to deliver at least 40% of benefits to marginalized communities.
