ESA and Chemical Regulations
On January 24, 2025, Brian Ferrasci-O’Malley spoke on an “ESA and Chemical Regulations” panel during The Seminar Group’s 32nd Annual Endangered Species Act Conference. The panel discussed the chemical 6PPD, a compound found in vehicle tires that has the potential to impact salmon populations, including: the state of the science, how projects requiring consultation under the Endangered Species Act might be affected and existing litigation and issues with 6ppd and other emerging contaminants.
The 32nd Annual Endangered Species Act Conference is a two-day seminar during which ESA practitioners, agency officials and scientists provide the latest and most important information you’ll need for ESA compliance. This conference will help attorneys, businesses, conservation organizations and government staff understand the complexities of the law.
