County of Maui v. Hawaii Wildlife Fund examines whether the Clean Water Act requires a permit when pollutants originate from a point source but are conveyed to navigable waters by a non-point source, such as groundwater. The outcome of the case could affect longstanding EPA policy related to the implementation of the Clean Water Act. Elbert Lin, a partner at Hunton, Andrews, Kurth, argued the case on behalf of County of Maui. Mr. Lin will be joined by Professor Michelle Nowlin, who co-authored an amicus brief on behalf of Hawaii Wildlife Fund. Lunch will be served. Sponsored by the Federalist Society and the Environmental Law Society. For more information, email Brent McKnight at brent.mcknight@duke.edu.
