WEBINAR Could Federal Agency Collaborative Decision-making be the Silver Lining for the Repeal of the Chevron Doctrine?

Updated: Oct 7, 2024



 

The Environment and Public Policy Section of the Association for Conflict Resolution hosted a webinar panel on September 25, 2024 to discuss the implications of the recent Supreme Court decision on the Chevron Doctrine.


Topic:

What was the Chevron Doctrine and what happens now that the Supreme Court repealed it?  Now that the Chevron Doctrine can no longer be used for federal agency preference in lawsuits, the courts will get to decide if an agency decision was sound.  Or Congress will have to be more specific in its law-making. Many environmentalists are concerned that this will diminish the importance of federal agency technical and scientific expertise.

 

Where is the locus of decision making now? Might courts look more favorably upon federal agency decisions reached through consensus with interested parties?  Could this incentivize federal agencies to engage more with interested parties and Tribes?

  

Panelists:

Michael F. McBride, Partner, Van Ness Feldman

Gail Bingham Environmental Mediator
