In this Episode of The Energy Question, David Blackmon interviews our friend Meghan Lapp, Media/Public Liaison for Seafreeze Industries, which was one of the plaintiffs in the Loper Bright v. Raimondo case decided last week by the U.S. Supreme Court.
In this episode, Meghan recounts her reaction when this incredibly impactful decision came down and talks about the impacts on the commercial fishing community and the next steps in the case, which now goes back to the district court for reconsideration.
Of course, that reconsideration will be made absent the destructive Chevron deference, which the Supreme Court rescinded in Friday’s ruling.
In the final 10 minutes, David and Meghan also discuss the ongoing conflicts and displacements falling on the commercial fishing industry related to the Biden administration’s ludicrous offshore wind program.
It’s a fast-moving half-hour you won’t want to miss. Give it a watch:
I wonder if the fisheries jokers got the idea of charging the fishing boats for the regulators time and expenses from the NRC, which gets to bill nuclear power plants for all the time they waste analyzing license and construction permits.
I wouldn't call the NRDC and SC apparatchiks that Biden inserted in the EPA, "refugees". They are "infiltrators". "Refugee" implies that they've been abandoned by the organization where their true loyalty lies, and make no mistake, all their loyalty is to NRDC or Sierra Club, et. al., and none of it is to the people of the USA. And they'll have cushy jobs back at those NGOs when their assignment at EPA is over.
