Dear current and former FSU Law Environmental Program students,

I hope that you are well and safe. For anyone interested in learning more about EPA’s approach to environmental compliance during COVID-19 or  legal components of the current oil and gas industry economic crisis, the following webinars offered by the Rocky Mountain Mineral Law Foundation might be useful.

Best wishes,

The prolonged demand shock caused by the COVID-19 shutdown has already had a substantial impact on companies in the oil and gas industry, with WTI oil prices going negative for the first time in history. 

Some companies in the industry have already been forced into bankruptcy or are on the brink of bankruptcy. This may be your company or client, or it may be your company’s or your client’s lessees, operators, non-operators, gathering companies, processors, product purchasers, drilling contractors, or other service providers. Knowing the basics of bankruptcy will be invaluable when dealing with the inevitable wave of insolvency. This webinar will introduce oil and gas lawyers and companies to these basic bankruptcy concepts. 

Topics will include:

·    Chapter 7 vs Chapter 11

·    The automatic stay, "property of the estate" and "adequate protection"

·    Bankruptcy code provisions unique to the oil & gas industry

·    Treatment of contracts: executory contracts/unexpired leases

·    Creditor claims: "administrative," "priority," secured and unsecured

·    Fraudulent transfers and preferences

·    Exiting bankruptcy: asset sales, plans and the discharge

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency issued a memo on “COVID-19 Implications for Enforcement and Compliance Assurance” on March 26, 2020. With a number of important

exceptions, the memo announces that enforcement discretion may be exercised for environmental compliance shortcomings arising from COVID-19. A number of State agencies have also issued enforcement guidance and adopted a variety of policies to address compliance challenges during this time.

This webinar will critically examine the EPA memo, some of the other memos and policies issued to date, and the pros and cons of these memos and policies from a variety of different perspectives.
