Audience

This live audio conference is designed for attorneys, engineers, environmental professionals, presidents, vice presidents, architects, developers, contractors, subcontractors, government officials, planners, public works professionals, land use officials, farmers and real estate professionals.

Benefits

“Agriculture accounts for a significant portion of the U.S. economy and land area, and is subject to a growing list of environmental regulations including the Clean Water Act; Clean Air Act; Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act; Resource Conservation and Recovery Act; Toxic Substances Control Act; Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act; Endangered Species Act; and Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act. While historically agriculture has benefited from exemptions from some of these regulations, frequent legal challenges and regulatory responses to court decisions are eroding some of the exemptions and raise significant potential legal liabilities.

This live audio seminar will provide you with the latest court and regulatory developments concerning topics such as the evolving definition and scope of wetlands, requirements for handling animal wastes and waste water, efforts to make ammonia a criteria pollutant under the Clean Air Act and what this could mean to farmers, regulation of greenhouse gas emissions, re-registration of pesticides and the resulting restrictions on their use and application, liability for misusing pesticides, and the continuing impact of the Endangered Species Act.

Learning Objectives:
• You will be able to review regulation under the Clean Water Act.
• You will be able to identify animal feed operations.
• You will be able to explain regulation under the Endangered Species Act.
• You will be able to discuss greenhouse gas emissions. ”

Benefits

“The saying goes that two heads are better than one, and this is especially the case when pursuing government contract opportunities. It is a prime contract that has a contractor performing without any partners. Even large defense contractors with an extensive library of forms, however, can fall victim to certain traps that can lurk in the subcontract. Failure to comply with legal requirements, provide true and correct certifications, or negotiate adequate protection of one’s interests can not only impact company bottom lines, but also subject one to liability under the civil False Claims Act, potential civil and criminal liability under federal fraud statutes, and potential administrative sanctions, such as suspension or debarment. This audio conference will cover some of the more important issues in a subcontract and provide valuable checklists and references for small business concerns, protecting intellectual property rights, and preserving ones status as a commercial item provider.

Learning Objectives:
• You will be able to explain when to start negotiating the form of subcontract.
• You will be able to identify acceptance criteria, invoicing and payments.
• You will be able to discuss restrictions on subcontracting and assignments.
• You will be able to review small business concerns.”
