A Clean Water Act Time Machine Reflections by a Key Legislative Staffer on the Act at 50

October 12th, 2022 12-1PM PST - Lunch & Learn For the past 50 years, the Clean Water Act has been one of the nation’s most consequential environmental laws. The Clean Water Act fundamentally reoriented the regulatory approach to water pollution control and the fact that the nation’s waters are now cleaner, supporting much healthier ecosystems is a testament to its effectiveness. For the Act’s 50th Anniversary, CLEE presents a discussion between Tom Jorling, one of the key legislative aides responsible for the Act’s structure and passage, and Dave Owen, UC Hastings Professor of Law and a leading water and environmental law scholar. We will learn about how the Act passed, what its drafters anticipated, how it has and has not lived up to its potential. We will also discuss key legal issues for the Act’s future. Join us on October 12 for a unique interaction between historical perspective and current scholarship. Panelists: Dave Owen, Professor of Law, UC Hastings Tom Jorling, former Minority Counsel to the US Senate Subcommittee on Air and Water Pollution; former Assistant Administrator of US EPA Moderator: Michael Kiparsky, Water Program Director, Center for Law, Energy & the Environment Special Thanks to Our CLEE Partners: Hanson Bridgett LLP Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati LLP
