Epsiode 15: Marco Island Edition

In this episode, Ryan, Brett, Jeff, and Pat get together and talk about the Environmental Permitting Summer School in Marco Island, now in its 38th year. They talk tips for a better time while you’re there, such as some breakout sessions that are anticipated to be particularly interesting, and some nearby restaurants worth checking out.  They also discuss Florida’s budget; the statewide stormwater rule ratification; and legal wrangling around ‘waters of the United States.’ To read the Specifier online (where we hope you’ll subscribe if you haven’t already), go here: https://floridaspecifier.com Herschel Vineyard goes deeper on the legal wrangling around the ‘waters of the United States’ and it’s worth a read here: https://floridaspecifier.com/issues/v45n4-issues/second-kick-of-the-mule-awaits-feds-ignoring-wotus-decision/ To read more about updates to the stormwater rulemaking process, go here: https://floridadep.gov/water/engineering-hydrology-geology/content/erp-stormwater-resource-center To get the word out about how you’re making waves (pun intended) in Florida’s environmental world, make sure you reach out to Brett, Ryan, or Jamie at: [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] A huge thank you goes out to Bagels and Biscuits for giving permission to use their music for the podcast.
