TextEnvironmental Quality Advisory Council - Public Hearings
Each year, EQAC holds a public hearing to obtain input on issues of
environmental concern. The most recent public hearing was held on
Monday, January 7, 2013.
The public is encouraged to attend EQAC's public hearing to share
views on the state of the environment and to identify environmental
issues applicable to Fairfax County. The public is also invited to
attend any EQAC
meeting and to submit
correspondence for EQAC's consideration at any time. Environmental
issues considered by EQAC include water quality, air quality, noise,
hazardous materials, solid waste, stream valley protection, wildlife
management, light pollution, visual pollution, climate change response
and adaptation, energy conservation, land use, transportation and the
use and preservation of ecological resources. While the timing of
the public hearing tends to coincide with the timing of the publication
of EQAC's Annual Report on
the Environment, the public hearing is not intended to focus on
the Annual Report but is instead intended to hear your views
and concerns regarding environmental issues of interest to you.
