What opportunity does the public have to participate in the environmental assessment process?
• The B.C. EA process fosters public involvement through a number of channels: • First, there is public notification of key consultation events. • Secondly, the public is able to access information through an electronic Project Information Centre on the EAO website (www.eao.gov.bc.ca). • Thirdly, there are formal public comment periods on the draft terms of reference and the application, and public meetings.
