Associated Oregon Industries Half Day Symposium
Tuesday, September 23, 2014
Everyone is Welcome – AOI Members, Non-Members and Guests 

No matter what your business, upcoming state and federal climate change polices will affect you. And in a big way. Carbon tax, cap & trade, transportation projects, land use, building and production materials, energy costs, the list is endless. Hear from state officials, economists, and your business colleagues about our options, who will be the winners and losers, and what we can expect to see for 2015 & beyond.
