Ethanol, eminent domain will highlight TSCRA summer
meeting
Attendees of the TSCRA summer meeting to be held at
the Hyatt Regency Lost Pines Resort, June 15-17, will hear from top speakers on some of
today's hottest topics: ethanol, the Trans-Texas Corridor and eminent
domain.
Gregg
Doud, National Cattlemen's Beef Association (NCBA), will discuss the local and
global impact of ethanol in the June 17 general session, which begins at 9:00
a.m. at Hyatt's Lost Pines Resort, near Bastrop.
As chief economist with NCBA, Doud focuses on the economics of industry, trade and
international policy issues, all of which are at the forefront in today's debate
over the future of ethanol and how it will impact cattle producers and the
world.
Also
speaking in the general session, attorney Mike Barron will discuss other
important issues in the news - the Trans-Texas Corridor and eminent domain.
Barron's law firm, Barron & Adler, L.L.P., focuses exclusively on cases involving
eminent domain, condemnation and regulatory takings.
Barron
brought to the firm his years in litigation practice with the Attorney General's
office, rising to the level of chief of the antitrust division under Attorney
General John Hill; and several years in private practice primarily representing
landowners in eminent domain litigation.
