 Public Involvement in EPA Decisions 
 
 A National Dialogue Via the Internet 
 
 Convened by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency 
 Hosted by Information Renaissance 
 
 http://www.network-democracy.org/epa-pip 
 
 July 10 - July 20, 2001 
 
 You are invited to participate in an online public discussion with EPA and
panels of experts on improving public involvement in EPA decision-making.
Please join a broad cross-section of individuals who will share their thoughts
and ideas on this important topic with each other and with the Agency. 
 
 Over the course of 10 days (including a Saturday), the participants will
discuss specific topics drawn from EPA's newly drafted Public Involvement
Policy. EPA is now seeking your thoughts and ideas on how it should implement
this policy. Because this will be a web-based discussion, you can select the
topics that interest you and 
 participate at your convenience. 
 
 A revolving panel of experts will discuss the main aspects of the draft Public
Involvement Policy with each other and with  approximately 500 participants.
Among the topics that we will discuss are the following: 
 
 * Identifying and involving the public, including those hardest to reach; 
 * Providing information to the public; 
 * Creating effective public involvement opportunities during 
 rulemaking and permitting; and 
 * Encouraging collaborative processes 

 The Dialogue is an excellent opportunity for citizens,  representatives of
industry, environmental groups, small businesses, states, local governments,
tribes, and other groups to learn more about the draft Policy and to share
their thoughts and concerns with EPA.
