Daniel N. Anziska, a partner in Troutman Pepper Locke’s Energy Industry Group, was quoted in the September 18, 2026, Law360 article, “USDA Disclosure Rule Could Snag Energy Project Deals.”

  • “This covers essentially everything but a very short-term lease,” said Troutman Pepper Locke LLP partner Dan Anziska, who works on foreign investment and trade issues for renewable energy and other industries. “It’s not just ownership — it’s also really control of a project.”
  • Anziska of Troutman said project developers could be more cautious as well.

    “Will there be a little more scrutiny on minority participants and funds or other structures who may catch you in AFIDA jurisdiction?” Anziska said. “So then … do you want a guy at 8% [ownership] instead of 12% ownership?”
