TOPIC
What's the Value of a View of Area 51?
The Truth is Out There . . . The presentation will describe the saga of an acquisition through condemnation by the U.S. of a property within the boundaries of the National Test and Training Range in Nevada. Spanning a number of years, the pre-trial activities included a number of appraisals, appraisal reviews and work by additional experts on both sides. The extensive pre-trial work, including depositions, law and motion practice, sets the stage for the ultimate trial. We will discuss the valuation positions taken by the two sides, the results of pre-trial motions and their impact on the case and the final verdict, along with the reasoning of the commission that heard the matter. Finally, we will discuss some key takeaways from the story.

Uniform Relocation Act Informational Webinar Series

June 14, 17, 20, & 21, 2024
Virtual
The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) is holding several upcoming in-depth webinars regarding the final rule on the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act of 1970 (Uniform Act), which was published in the Federal Register on Friday, May 3, 2024. The final rule became effective June 3, 2024.
This final rule amends the government-wide Uniform Act regulations at 49 CFR part 24. The revisions were prompted by the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21), which increased statutory relocation benefits and reduced length of occupancy requirements. The FHWA also updated the Uniform Act regulations in response to comments received during the public comment period and to reflect FHWA’s experience with the Federal-aid highway program since the last comprehensive Uniform Act rulemaking, which occurred in 2005. The updates include streamlining processes to better meet current Uniform Act implementation needs and eliminating duplicative and outdated regulatory language. The final rule also includes important equity updates, including increases in the relocation benefit levels to account for inflation.

For more than 30 years, Rick has been representing landowners, developers, businesses, and public agencies in some of California’s biggest eminent domain, inverse condemnation, land use, and other real estate deals and disputes. Rick has an unrivaled understanding of how to navigate complicated eminent domain and land use issues, and clients regularly seek his counsel on acquisition deals, valuation, and on land planning and entitlement issues.
|
While Rick is an exceptional litigator, he employs a strategic approach to finding successful resolutions for his clients early in the process, avoiding costly litigation whenever possible. His extensive and comprehensive knowledge of this narrow space, coupled with his experience and understanding of how the regulatory environment and infrastructure impacts land use, allow Rick to strategically negotiate multimillion-dollar deals for clients across a variety of industries. Rick is steadfast in his belief that achieving a client’s objective is what is important, not a litigation victory, and that this usually means the primary focus must be on keeping a client’s project moving forward. Although he is always ready to go to trial when needed, Rick recognizes that litigation is a crucial tool but not always the solution.

Webinar: Carbon Capture, Storage, and Utilization for Land Professionals
IRWA International Environment Committee
Virtual
Description
|
The carbon market is a hot topic we are all hearing about. Land professionals are working on more carbon sequestration pipelines and projects supporting carbon injection/storage technologies, and work is not slowing down anytime soon. Land professionals providing appraisal, right of way negotiations and mineral rights services will benefit from diving in deeper to better understand the basics of what carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) is, why and how more industries and governments are wanting to utilize and improve the technologies for CCUS, the current general status of CCUS and what is hoping to be achieved by implementation of CCUS.
The carbon industry is multipronged and interconnected with a variety of other industries such as the energy industry, chemicals, agriculture, transportation, steel and cement. The public and political concern over greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and the impacts on global climate change has led many countries and companies to a push for a net zero emissions environment. |
According to the World Economic Forum, human-made CO2 emissions need to fall 45% by 2030, and the world needs to reach net-zero by 2050 to stand a chance of limiting global warming to 1.5°C, as agreed in the 2015 Paris climate summit. Reaching this net-zero state would require removing all GHG emissions, of which CO2 makes up the majority (carbon storage).
Reaching a carbon neutral state would require the use of carbon offset programs to remove the same amount of carbon-only emissions as the amount produced (e.g., carbon capture/sequestration and utilization). Our panel of carbon experts will share their knowledge and experiences so you can be better prepared to talk to landowners, clients and colleagues when they ask questions about carbon capture, sequestration, storage and utilization. |

Topic:
Big Projects, Big Data. Geographic Information Systems as a critical collaboration tool for design, planning, and right-of-way analysis for major infrastructure projects.
Presentation Description: |
Speaker:
|
|
Planning for major capital improvement projects can often begin years, or even decades before construction commences. Throughout the planning, design, and environmental review process, right-of way professionals are called upon to help analyze the need for additional property and rights to construct projects, and to estimate costs to obtain those rights. For regional scale “mega projects”, affected properties can number in the dozens to hundreds (or more) requiring detailed studies of the impact to properties and displaced uses.
To provide the information necessary to evaluate right-of-way impacts as part of the overall design and environmental process, right-of-way professionals have begun to adopt new technologies, allowing them to readily exchange critical data with engineers, planners, oversight agencies, local agency stakeholders, and the public. The use of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) specifically has paved the way for unprecedented collaboration among these project partners and enabled right-of-way professionals to provide meaningful insights to the project development process that can help minimize unnecessary impacts to existing infrastructure. |
In addition to helping identify right-of-way requirements and minimizing impacts, GIS has helped analysts develop estimates of the likely cost to obtain property and rights early in the project development process. Especially in regions where real estate can be a significant portion of the overall project cost, these estimates have proven invaluable for assessing overall project feasibility, applying for funding, and programming funding for future project phases.
This presentation will provide insights into the adoption of GIS technology by right-of-way professionals and provide examples of integrating the technology into the planning process for large infrastructure projects. The presentation will highlight some of the advantages to using GIS as part of the planning process, discuss some of the challenges to implementing these systems, and discuss other considerations for teams who may wish to adopt this technology for their projects. |
