Rulemaking

​DEQ is convening an advisory committee to provide diverse perspectives on policy proposals, including fiscal, environmental justice, public health and economic impacts. DEQ will not seek consensus from the committee, nor will the committee be asked to vote, on specific issues. The committee’s discussions will be used by DEQ in forming its draft rules.
