Extension of Department of Ecology's Comment Period for Public Comment for Identification of Overburdened Communities Highly Impacted by Air Pollution
The department of ecology respectfully requests a six-day extension to the comment period for the identification of overburdened communities highly impacted by air pollution for the reason stated below.
Due to an unfortunate setback with our contracted interpretive services provider, we were unable to provide interpreter services as advertised to the public at our first online public comment session (September 27, 2022). We previously shared that we would have interpreters available in Spanish, Korean, Vietnamese, Chinese, and Russian at all seven of our ecology-hosted online public comment sessions.
On account of any inconvenience this unfortunate impact may have caused to those wanting to participate, we would like to extend an additional six days to our public comment period with a new completion date of November 10, 2022.
If you have any questions or would like additional information, please contact Rob Dengel at 360-480-1453 or rob.dengel@ecy.wa.gov.
