Still Time to Register for the Annual Institute

There’s still time to register for the Energy & Mineral Law Foundation’s 38th Annual Institute in Colonial Williamsburg, Virginia. The conference is being held May 21-23, with the Williamsburg Lodge as the host hotel.

Attend a stimulating program with up to 15 hours of CLE and ethics credits, and then spend time visiting the world’s largest living history museum — enjoy Williamsburg where actors in period costume depict daily colonial life in the streets, stores and workshops. Go to Jamestown and Yorktown, or find your inner child with a visit to Busch Gardens and more.

The registration fee includes all sessions and meeting materials in electronic format, reception Sunday evening, lunch and reception Monday, continental breakfasts and refreshment breaks. All registrants will receive a copy of Volume 38 of the Energy & Mineral Law Institute publication in electronic format in early 2018. Guest registration fee covers hosted receptions on Sunday and Monday. Sunday’s Welcome Reception will be held outdoors at the Fountain Garden, and features live music by Gallatin Canyon.

Topics include:

  • Regulatory Roundtable – A View from Industry on the Road Ahead in the Trump Administration
  • The Congressional Review Act
  • Drones in the Energy Business
  • Hot Topics in Legal Ethics
  • Are ALJs an Endangered Species?
  • Blockchain:  The Technology Revolution You haven’t Heard of – Yet
  • Recent Developments in the Law of Pipelines
  • Exercising Professional Judgment When Drafting Oil and Gas Documents (ethics)
  • Louisiana Wetlands and Coastal Issues
  • Railroads and Rights-of-Way
  • Liability of Abstractors and Attorneys for Title Claims

You may call the hotel at 800.261.9530 (8:30 a.m.-5 p.m. EST) for accommodations. Attendees must identify themselves as registrants for the Energy & Mineral Law Foundation or by the title of the meeting which is 38th Annual Institute.

For the meeting, you can download a PDF version of the e-brochure or register online by going to the EMLF website — www.emlf.org.
