The Death of Chevron: What Does the Supreme Court's Ruling Mean for Design and Engineering?
Experience Level: Any level of experience
“What does this law mean?” Countless battles have been fought over this question. Just over a month ago, the Supreme Court issued its Loper decision, overturning the powerful 40-year-old Chevron doctrine on providing meaning to ambiguous laws. Now what?

This presentation will also touch on other administrative law decisions made by the Supreme Court this session.
