Environmental Quality Advisory Council - Public Hearings
Each year (usually in December), EQAC holds a public hearing to obtain
input on issues of environmental concern. The public is
encouraged to attend 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.
Summaries of recent public hearings are available below in portable
document format (PDF) or in Word format. In order to view PDF
documents, you will need the
Adobe Reader installed on your computer. The summary of
the January 17, 2012 public hearing will be posted after it is

Many of these summaries reference written statements that were
provided by speakers. These statements are not available on this
website but are available for review. If you would like to review any

Department of Planning and Zoning at 703-324-1369, TTY 711.
