Clean Water Act Forum - Fort Worth

April 25th, 6:30pm
Texas Wesleyan School of Law
This event is free and open to the public.

Clean Water Act Forum
Texas waterways are part of what make Texas beautiful, thriving, and prosperous.  According to EPA, however, Texas waterways are at risk. Up to 56% of the streams in Dallas and Tarrant counties that provide water for surface water intakes are currently without Clean Water Act protection. At the same time, expanding the Clean Water Act imposes difficult barriers on the energy and agricultural industries, industries that boost our economy. Come learn about the current state of the law and how legal uncertainties impact DFW.

Speakers include policymakers, environmental advocates, business/agricultural representatives and water law experts.

Texas Wesleyan's Environmental Law Society is excited to be co-sponsoring this event and will be providing refreshments.
