    The public is advised to check the Commission's website 
periodically during the ten days prior to the hearing date, as items 
scheduled for hearing may be postponed if additional time is needed to 
complete the Commission's review. Items also may be added up to ten 
days prior to the hearing date. In reviewing docket descriptions, the 
public is asked to be aware that the details of projects may change 
during the Commission's review, which is ongoing.
    Public Meeting. The public business meeting on March 9, 2022 will 
begin at 10:30 a.m. and will include: Adoption of the Minutes of the 
Commission's December 8, 2021 business meeting; announcements of 
upcoming meetings and events; a report on hydrologic conditions; 
reports by the Executive Director and the Commission's General Counsel; 
and consideration of any items for which a hearing has been completed 
or is not required.
    After all scheduled business has been completed and as time allows, 
the business meeting will be followed by up to one hour of Open Public 
Comment, an opportunity to address the Commission on any topic 
concerning management of the Basin's water resources outside the 
context of a duly noticed, on-the-record public hearing.
    There will be no opportunity for additional public comment for the 
record at the March 9, 2022 business meeting on items for which a 
hearing was completed on February 9, 2022 or a previous date. 
Commission consideration on March 9, 2022 of items for which the public 
hearing is closed may result in approval of the item (by docket or 
resolution) as proposed, approval with changes, denial, or deferral. 
When the Commissioners defer an action, they may announce an additional 
period for written comment on the item, with or without an additional 
hearing date, or they may take additional time to consider the input 
they have already received without requesting further public input. Any 
deferred items will be considered for action at a public meeting of the 
Commission on a future date.
