Public Involvement Opportunities

Ecology
wants to keep you involved! Community involvement is very important
during the cleanup process and there are several key steps where public input is
needed. Public involvement can include attending public
meetings, submitting written comments during public comment
periods, and educating the community.
When can I make a public comment?
Typically, Ecology will ask for public input on legal agreements
with Rayonier, major cleanup decisions, cleanup work plans, and
draft reports (see below). To receive notification of
public comment periods, please contact
Hannah Aoyagi (360-407-6790), Public Involvement Coordinator, to be added to the mailing list.
How can I be involved?
Individuals, organizations, and other agencies may submit
written comments during public comment periods and attend public
meetings.
Public Participation Grants are
available for non-profit organizations interested in monitoring
the cleanup and helping to prevent pollution.
Olympic
Environmental Council is a current grantee.
