  • Reviewing and analyzing briefs, hearing records and transcripts, and other papers relevant to the particular matter under review.
  • Researching applicable laws, regulations, legal opinions, and Agency guidance bearing on legal issues and analyzing factual and legal issues before the Board.

  • Reviewing proposed administrative consent decrees and providing comments and recommendations to the Board.
  • Assisting in the preparation for, and the conduct of, oral argument and the analysis of the hearing record of such arguments.
