Brief Encounters

Legal Developments in Environmental Justice


Listen Later

D.C. Bar Environment Energy and Natural Resources Community co-chair, Lisa Anne Hamilton, interviews Julius M. Redd, Principal and co-founder of the

Environmental Justice Practice Group at Beveridge & Diamond. Julius shares his insights about the rapidly evolving legal developments driving the enforcement
of state and federal environmental justice law. 

The conversation addresses the recent permanent injunction issued in Louisiana v. EPA and efforts to limit U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s and Department of Justice’s enforcement of disparate impact regulations under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. 

Further, the guests discuss how states are advancing environmental justice through legislation, regulations, enforcement and the recent settlement of a Title VI complaint in Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy v. Michigan Environmental Justice Coalition, EGLE Complaint No. 20-001-D.  Additionally, learn how these considerations are influencing the expansion of critical infrastructure

investments funded under the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) and the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL).
