Devin M. McDonell's college and law school education includes Harvard College, Bachelor of Arts, cum laude, 1995, University of San Francisco School of Law, Juris Doctor, magna cum laude, 2009. Other biographical background includes Lawyers Author Article on Fracking Legislation Law360, March 6, 2013 - Partners Ella Foley Gannon and Camarin Madigan and associate Devin McDonell authored the article California's Road to Fracking Will be Bumpy, which discusses the increasing role fracking will play in California's future and how it needs to be regulated. The Center for Biological Diversity (CBD) recently challenged the practice of hydraulic fracturing in California when it filed a complaint in California's Alameda County Superior Court, claiming that California's underground injection control program requires the California Division of Oil, Gas and Geothermal Resources (DOGGR) to regulate hydraulic fracturing. The CBD's suit, seeking declaratory and injunctive relief, is the latest mile marker on the road to fracking regulation in California. For at least the foreseeable future, fracking regulation will continue to move forward on three parallel paths: through agencies, through the courts and through the legislature. The DOGGR's discussion draft is likely to lead to a formal - and lengthy - rule-making proceeding, in which stakeholders will have an opportunity to mold and shape California's approach to fracking regulation, said the authors. Simultaneously, environmental groups, in addition to participating in the DOGGR's rule-making, will continue to challenge the DOGGR's failure to regulate fracking under existing law. And finally, the legislature remains committed to passing legislation requirin. You should contact other lawyers and law firms nearby before choosing your legal representatives.
