What is the role of the Public Advisory Committee?
The Public Advisory Committee serves as a public sounding board for Technical Committee decisions and communications efforts through the study. The volunteer members were selected as a representative sample of the Sudbury community, with no existing biases, affiliations or conflicts with any aspect of the study. The thread that binds the Public Advisory Committee is a collective commitment to ensuring the current soils study is conducted appropriately with proper public consultation and communication. The role of the committee is not to review the science of the study, but to comment on the process itself as seen by the average Sudburian.
