PFC Announcements



The November PFC meeting action items included a request to initiate four threads on the PFC Forum.  The objective for the threads  is to continue the discussion from the meeting.

Below are the descriptions for the LCBC threads regarding the DEIS:

Alternatives - Advocacy
  • Volunteers agreed to advocate for specific DEIS alternatives.
  • Ron Hamilton will advocate for Alternative D, and John Robison volunteered for Alternative C.  
  • This discussion resides in the Forum Thread that includes the video overview and the "check box" survey of Alternatives.  
  • The advocates will make their case based on their comparison of the alternative to the PFC objectives that were adopted in January 2013.
