Professor Frank Comments on California Environmental Quality Act for NPR
On February 4, Professor of Environmental Practice Richard Frank served as a panelist on Bay Area National Public Radio affiliate KALW's "City Visions" program. The hour-long broadcast focused on the current debate over whether and how the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) should be reformed to reflect more recent and specific state environmental laws, the unique challenges presented by infill development projects, climate change and renewable energy projects, economic concerns, and other issues.
Frank, a 1974 graduate of King Hall, is a leader in the field of environmental law and the founding Director of the California Environmental Law and Policy Center at UC Davis School of Law.
