Public participation in the brownfields redevelopment process includes public hearings on the initial findings at a site, involvement during the design of work and sampling plans, and the presentation of the final development plans. We help our clients prepare for the community’s questions regarding brownfield project redevelopment. The best way to communicate project goals is to start by developing scientifically valid and defensible plans followed by effective translation of the plans into understandable terms. It is informative and advantageous to compare the hypothetical risks associated with a property redevelopment program to issues encountered every day by community members. Environmental Standards personnel often participate in public meetings to communicate brownfield redevelopment plans in terms that can easily be understood by the general public.
