A Land Use Attorney's Perspective on Siting and Acquiring Land for Energy and Infrastructure Projects

Join us on September 3, 2026, for a virtual Ladies in Land educational event.

This session, “A Land Use Attorney's Perspective on Siting and Acquiring Land for Energy and Infrastructure Projects,” will feature David Hughes and will explore the legal and land-related considerations involved in identifying and acquiring property for energy and infrastructure projects.

The discussion will provide a land use attorney's perspective on the foundations of American real property law, different estates in real property, and the concept of land rights—often described as the “Bundle of Sticks.” Attendees will also explore land survey systems used across the United States and hear real-world stories involving unique landowners and projects.

  • A brief history of American real property law

  • Different estates in real property

  • Land rights and the “Bundle of Sticks” concept

  • Land survey systems used across the United States

  • Real-world stories involving unique landowners and projects

This session is designed to provide valuable perspective for developers, attorneys, engineers, planners, energy and infrastructure professionals, and land professionals involved in site selection and land acquisition.
