Carlton Fields attorney Neal McAliley was quoted in an article for Law360, “Biden Administration Beats Justice To Punch With CWA Rule.” The piece discusses the current administration’s final rule defining the scope of the Clean Water Act (CWA), and how it could influence U.S. Supreme Court justices as they consider the outcome of a current case involving the CWA, Sackett v. EPA.
Neal’s commentary relates to the potential issues that may arise depending on the outcome of the case, namely affecting: the EPA and Army Corps of Engineers, regulated parties that are trying to determine if they need a CWA permit, and current pending litigation about other issues related to waters of the US.
