The comment period is the public's opportunity to weigh in on a proposed regulation or proposed permit. This is when the public can provide information, support an initiative, provide technical information, or explain the implications of a rule or section that an agency may not have considered.

In this webinar, learn how to review a proposal, effective ways to structure comments, when to submit an oral versus a written comment, and how you can make the most of the process. Additionally, the Federal and State rulemaking and comment period are not the same. Learn the differences. Discover how to make the most effective comments to support your position and influence the agency’s review.

This event will be 100% virtual. Recordings will be shared with attendees after the event. If you have any questions about the event, please feel free to contact Pri Oliveira at poliveira@thewatershed.org
