Lynn Scarlett, Assistant Secretary of Policy, Management and Budget for the U.S. Department of Interior, will speak on the important growth of private conservation initiatives and will address some of the nation's and Washington state's environmental concerns at the first annual Center for Environmental Policy luncheon on July 26th.
Ms. Scarlett will also address the fundamental problem facing the government/private sector relationship: being able to enact legislation designed to help preserve our air, water and land without creating economically damaging rules that strangle private interests.
The Center for Environmental Policy, a project of Washington Policy Center, provides clear, market-based policy alternatives for successful environmental protection. The Center's research is based on a balanced view of economic, social and scientific data, and emphasizes private efforts to promote environmental stewardship.
Media are encouraged to attend.
