For you land use folks out there, later this month the Planning and Law Division of the APA is hosting a webcast on the Endangered Species Act.  The details are below:

Registration:  $20 for PLD members, $40 for nonmembers, and $45 for webinar registration plus a Planning and Law Division membership. 

Description:  This webcast explores what an ESA listing may mean for local governments, how local or regional efforts can be incentivized to cooperate with state or federal policy, how to break down the ‘sue-settle’ model for the betterment of the species, and whether the ESA requires an overhaul and if that is possible.
