There are a number of potential regulatory and environmental issues facing energy and construction/infrastructure projects, from Aboriginal consultation and D&O regulatory liability to reporting accidental discharges, ensuring proper due diligence and managing the ongoing risk of pollution liability.

Join us for an interactive panel discussion focused on the key issues that have potential to halt a project in its tracks and raise the spectre of legal liability for a project participants and owners alike. Our group of legal experts will highlight recent cases which have resulted in prosecution or regulatory orders as well as civil actions, and will suggest ways these issues could have been avoided.
