Public Meetings

The EIS project team encourages public involvement and will consider public input in developing the EIS as well as to support the decision-making process. When a public meeting or stakeholder working group meeting is held, summary notes will be made accessible for the public and project record.

Stakeholder Working Group

The project team has developed a stakeholder working group that includes representatives for trucking, agriculture, open lands, emergency services, schools, residents, developers, local government staff and businesses. This group serves as a sounding board to the project team to help ensure the study information communicated to the public is relevant and easily understood. The stakeholder working group is not a decision-making body, but rather a cross section of community members who bring forth the concerns of the broader communities they represent and in-return, are asked to distribute to their respective communities any information provided by the project team.

Throughout the EIS process, the community is encouraged to identify the representative whose neighborhood location or role best matches their own area/interests and send an email to the project team to be put in touch with a representative.
