The National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and other environmental laws can create significant legal risks for the delivery of complex infrastructure projects using alternative procurement strategies.

Nossaman's Elizabeth Cousins and Rob Thornton, along with guest speaker Tim Suydam from the East County Advanced Water Joint Powers Authority, presented a webinar on October 10, 2024 that covered:

  • Recent legal and regulatory developments under NEPA and CEQA;
  • The use of alternative project delivery strategies such as progressive design-build, construction manager at-risk, design-build-operate-maintain, public-private partnerships and other procurement strategies;
  • Best practices to minimize regulatory and litigation risks to the effective alternative delivery of complex infrastructure projects;
  • Allowable site investigations and disturbance prior to project approval;
  • Compliance with agency and contractor conflict of interest rules;
  • Strategies to avoid delays in project permitting delays after NEPA and CEQA clearance; and
  • Tips for minimizing environmental litigation delay risk.
