Certain unique aspects of the Environmental Review Tribunal’s rules and jurisdiction raise distinct issues in a regulatory challenge. For example, the statutory provisions governing the ERT’s jurisdiction create important hurdles to obtaining a stay of regulatory orders and decisions.  An understanding of these distinct issues is key to building a successful strategy.  Attend this program to hear lessons learned and advocacy tips for appearing before the ERT from  experienced counsel.
