2019 Environmental Law Conference at Yosemite: Steak, Wine & WOTUS - How the California Agricultural Industry Is Navigating Navigable Waters
The definition of navigable waters as “waters of the United States,” or WOTUS, has been in flux since the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers finalized the 2015 Clean Water Act amendments and the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals blocked those amendments. Twenty-two states (including California) have continued use of the 2015 amendments and 28 states are following the pre-2015 WOTUS definition, as interpreted by the U.S. Supreme Court in Rapanos v. U.S., pending new regulations. Meanwhile, the Supreme Court has agreed to hear County of Maui, Hawaii v. Hawai’i Wildlife Fund, potentially impac ting the definition. California State Water Resources Control Board regulations proposed in 2018 also target overlapping water sources, namely “the statewide wetland definition and procedures for discharges of dredged or fill material to Waters of the State.” This panel will discuss the status of the WOTUS regulations, the state’s proposed new regulations and their potential impact on agriculture in California.
