Partner Meghan Greenfield Quoted in NBC News and Law360 on EPA Power Plant Rollback
Publications
September 21, 2026
Partner Meghan Greenfield was quoted in NBC News and Law360 discussing the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) proposal to repeal greenhouse gas emissions limits on coal and gas fired power plants.
In NBC News, Meghan, who oversaw the EPA's Supreme Court docket for rulemaking during the Biden administration, noted that litigation over the repeal will likely move slowly through the courts of appeals and may not reach the Supreme Court before the current administration leaves office.
In Law360, Meghan, a former lawyer at the EPA and the Department of Justice's (DOJ) Environment and Natural Resources Division, observed that the EPA's move to eliminate greenhouse gas standards for power plants follows from its earlier repeal of the endangerment finding, though she noted open questions about how the agency's rationale will extend to other sectors, which are differently situated than utilities.
Meghan is a strategic environmental litigator and regulatory counselor, relying on her extensive government background at the EPA and the DOJ to guide clients through an evolving legal landscape. Meghan's work spans complex litigation to high-stakes counseling, helping companies navigate environmental and regulatory risk in a time of rapid policy change.
