Could EEA and its agencies be reconfigured to consolidate resources, clarify missions, and reduce duplication of effort?
“Governor Patrick and I have worked hard with EEA agencies to manage our budgetary challenges to date so as to have the least impact on our environmental mission,” said Secretary Bowles. “But the time has come to think bigger. In that, we need the help of everyone who cares about our parks, beaches, rivers, streams, and forests.” The EEA teams responsible for developing options for Secretary Bowles and Governor Patrick to consider in each of these areas are soliciting ideas and input from the public over the coming month. The schedule for public listening sessions is as follows: Public Private Partnerships • Tues., Nov. 17, 4-6 p.m., 100 Cambridge St., Boston, 2nd floor Conference Room A-B-C • Wed., Nov. 18, 4-6 p.m., Governor’s Western Mass. Office, 436 Dwight St., Springfield, Hearing Room New Regulatory Models • Tues., Nov. 17, 4-6 p.m., DEP office, 617 Main Street, Worcester • Fri., Nov. 20, 12 noon-2 p.m., DEP Office, 1 Winter Street, Boston, Washington Street Conference Room 2nd
