Policy and Public Affairs Brainstorm Breakfast (for representatives of NHA Member Organizations Only)

Download Copeland Tucker's presentation
This breakfast is designed to discuss the intersection of federal politics, regulatory policy, and public affairs developments from Washington D.C. and their impact on the hydropower industry. Current legislative activities, regulatory agency actions, and shifting political priorities are creating new challenges and opportunities for hydropower operations nationwide. The evolving policy landscape around energy is influencing how hydropower projects approach permitting, operations, and strategic planning.

This meeting will examine these Washington-driven policy trends and their implications for our industry, while exploring potential advocacy strategies and stakeholder engagement opportunities to effectively navigate this dynamic regulatory environment.
