What (and who) will be involved in the EACs public participation component?
A successful public participation effort is critical to the success of the EAC. While specific details of the public outreach component are pending, we anticipate a broad, interactive program that affords opportunities for environmental groups, neighborhood associations and other interested citizens to provide input. Radio, newspaper and other media will be used to communicate information and raise interest in public forums and other avenues for comment in Travis, Hays, Williamson, Caldwell and Bastrop the area bounded by counties. Given financial and time constraints, signatories welcome the outreach assistance and resources of interested area organizations. CLEAN AIR Force of Central Texas, Greater Austin Chamber of Commerce, and Clean Air Partners have already pledged their support.
