Hear from practitioners with real experiences practicing in the deregulated world created during the first year of the Trump Administration.

Moderator: Janelle L. Davis, Thompson & Knight LLP, Dallas, TX Speakers: Sharon F. Bridges, Maron Marvel Bradley Anderson & Tardy LLC, New Orleans, LA, Marta L. Villarraga, Exponent, Philadelphia, PA, Rich Young, LegalKaizen LLP, Oakland, CA

Environmental and Energy Breakout: Nailing Jell-O to a Tree: Challenges Associated with Evolving Science and Regulatory Requirements 10:45 am − 11:45 am

Whether it’s new toxicological studies associated with traditional contaminants like TCE, uncertainty associated with emerging contaminants like PFOAs and PFOS, more sensitive analytical tests, or evaluating exposure scenarios such as vapor intrusion that had not been previously considered, regulators struggle to keep up. The result is often overly conservative or inconsistent standards and lack of clarity regarding risk and compliance. This has far-reaching implications for the regulated community, such as in connection with periodic reviews or reopeners at Superfund sites, evaluating transactions and disclosure obligations, making remediation decisions, ensuring realistic and well-supported predictions for reserve estimates, or defending toxic tort lawsuits. Hear lawyers and experts discuss risk management, defense strategies and techniques to effectively communicate these issues to the employees, stakeholders and the public.

Moderator: Jennise Stubbs, Shook Hardy & Bacon LLP, Houston, TXSpeakers: David R. Gillay, Barnes & Thornburg LLP, Indianapolis, IN, Remy J-C Hennet, S. S. Papadopulos & Associates Inc., Bethesda, MD, David Platt, United Technologies Corporation, Farmington, CT

Mass Torts Breakout: The End of Mass Torts as We Know Them—or Not—How Recent Developments Have Impacted Current Mass Tort Practice 10:45 am − 11:45 am

This program will explore recent Supreme Court jurisprudence on personal jurisdiction, the early termination of MDL through dispositive motives, highlights of the Fairness in Class Action Litigation Act of 2017 (H.R. 985), and possibly other issues, as well as the impact of these developments on mass tort litigation.

Moderator: James Bilsborrow, Weitz & Luxenberg PC, New York, NY Speakers: James M. Beck, Reed Smith LLP, Philadelphia, PA, Alexandra D. Lahav, University of Connecticut School of Law, Hartford, CT, Paul D. Rheingold, Rheingold Giuffra Ruffo & Plotkin LLP, New York, NY
