Public comment should be designed to assist the EQC in its policy role. The EQC is committed to providing an opportunity for effective public involvement in natural resource policy development and review. Public comment will be taken at the discretion of the EQC Chairs and Co-Chairs. Due to the necessity of time management, the EQC Chair or Co-Chairs may limit individual public comment in order to allow an equal and fair opportunity for public comment generally as well as for other agenda items. Submission of written comments is encouraged.
Common courtesy is required of all parties.
The EQC Chair or Co-Chairs have the discretion to recess EQC meetings when they deem it appropriate. Recording or videotaping of EQC meetings is permissible in a manner that does not disrupt the meeting.
