NEPA Implementation and Federal Decision-Making After Recent Executive Orders and the Supreme Court’s Decision in Seven County Infrastructure Coalition v. Eagle County - Trump Administration executive orders Declaring a National Energy Emergency and Unleashing American Energy have driven major regulatory changes, including the Council of Environmental Quality (CEQ) rescinding regulations governing the implementation of NEPA and mandating agencies to revise their respective NEPA regulations. The Supreme Court’s recent decision in Seven Counties Infrastructure Coalition v. Eagle County, which held that NEPA is a purely procedural law, will also drive changes in the NEPA process moving forward. This seminar will discuss these recent developments and the 2025 agency NEPA procedures issued to replace the CEQ regulations.
We will also go over day-to-day ramifications for NEPA practitioners and potential legal risks for agencies and project applicants.
