Environmental Law Chair Jeff Porter spoke with Law360 about the chances that the State of Florida, or any other State, will receive authority from the EPA to issue Clean Water Act Section 404 “dredge and fill” permits anytime soon. Florida had been given that authority by the EPA at the end of the Trump administration, only to have a Federal Judge take it away last week.
