SOCMA Presents Setting the Record Straight: The Court's Impact on Regulatory Decision Making

Dave Topping and Sophie Gray will lead the discussion "Setting the Record Straight: The Court's Impact on Regulatory Decision Making," at the 2024 Society of Chemical Manufacturers and Affiliates (SOCMA) Executive Summit. This discussion comes in the wake of the Supreme Court's June 28 decision to overturn the long-standing Chevron Deference, which had allowed regulatory agencies, such as the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), to interpret ambiguous federal statutes. While many believe this ruling will foster innovation and reduce overburdensome regulations, the implications of the Loper Bright case suggest that future administrations may exploit the Supreme Court's decision to influence rulemaking.

Phelps is a sponsor of the SOCMA Executive Summit, hosted at the Emeline Hotel in Charleston, South Carolina. The SOCMA Executive Summit provides opportunities for executives in the specialty and batch chemical sectors to hear from chemical manufacturing thought leaders as they discuss the future of the industry, emerging trends, and innovative approaches to leadership and management.
