NSSGA to give updates on WOTUS
Published by Rebecca Bowden,

World Cement,
NSSGA’s Environmental Committee Meeting will include updates on crucial water, air and sustainability issues affecting the industry and be held from 7 to 9 am on Monday 21 March, at NSSGA’s Annual convention and AGG1 Academy & Expo in Nashville.
The feature speaker will be Tim Bishop of Mayer Brown, who is lead counsel in NSSGA’s lawsuit challenging the WOTUS rule. He will present a summary of the WOTUS case to date, and discuss the prospects for future success in amending the rule.
While the rule is currently under a temporary stay nationwide, it would dramatically increase the water features requiring a federal permit and increase costs for operators. Bishop has argued numerous land use and environmental cases before state and federal courts, including the U.S. Supreme Court.
