These meetings are in an open house format, and after that, a formal comment period where your comments will be taken down by a court reporter.\u00a0 It’s important to give your comments to the court reporter because otherwise it won’t be part of the record and won’t be taken into consideration.\u00a0 You can also send comments in to the DOE:<\/p>\n

Comments are due by August 11, 2014.\u00a0 Send comments to:<\/p>\n
