Buchanan attorneys Megan S. Haines and Robert L. Burns will participate in the University of Pittsburgh School of Law 2013 Energy Law & Policy Institute Seminar on August 1-2 at the Rivers Club in Pittsburgh.
Smith is set to speak on the legal issues in regards to the rise of unconventional gas and oil development driving the demands for new pipelines in the siting and permitting of infrastructure projects.
Burns will touch on the impact of shale gas on electricity markets.
The event will also cover cutting edge issues with regards to the rapidly changing U.S. energy portfolio. With a rapid move toward domestic unconventional fossil fuels, recent growth in nuclear energy and continued expansion of renewable generation the industry is working to adjust.
Join Pitt Law to explore the tools that will be needed to most effectively address energy-based changes in Pennsylvania, nationally, and globally.
