The three committees guiding the project will recommend to the lead agencies which alternatives to include in the EIS and which should be the preferred alternative. The committees also oversee the public outreach process. The Technical Committee provides the Executive Committee with a technical perspective on the proposed alternatives. Its members include technical staff from local jurisdictions, tribes, transportation and regulatory agencies. The Advisory Committee provides the Executive Committee with input representing the interests of the community, businesses, and other groups.
Public participation is essential to the success of the project.
