Professor Joe Feller participated in the 11th Annual Conference on Litigating Regulatory Takings Claims on Nov. 7, held at Stanford Law School and co-hosted by Stanford's Environmental and Natural Resources Law & Policy Program and the Georgetown Environmental Law & Policy Institute at Georgetown University Law Center.

Feller's lecture, "The Wayne Hage Takings Litigation: Public Grazing Land & Private Water Rights," focused on the late Nevada rancher who battled the federal government for decades over public lands and private property rights.

A week later, on Nov. 14, Feller addressed a meeting of the Appellate Judges Education Institute in Scottsdale. The title of his talk: "Whisky is for Drinkin', Water is for Fightin': Current Fights over Western Water."

Feller, a Faculty Fellow in the College's Center for the Study of Law, Science, & Technology, is on leave for the 2008-09 academic year, serving as senior counsel to the National Wildlife Federation in its Rocky Mountain Natural Resource Center in Boulder, Colo.
