DESCRIPTION:MEPA Working Group\nJune 27\, 2024 \n04:00pm \nZoom Registration  \nThe MEPA Workgroup convened by DEQ in January 2024 has released its draft final report for public review and comment. Over the past five months\, the workgroup met to discuss some of the biggest perceived challenges associated with implementation of the Montana Environmental Policy Act (MEPA).

Where members disagreed\, the differing opinions and opposing viewpoints they shared are documented throughout the report. \nFor more information about the work group\, visit: https://deq.mt.gov/about/MEPA \nAssociated Documents: \n\nDraft Final Report of the MEPA Workgroup\n\nComment Period Closes: June 24\, 2024 \nSubmit Comments To: DEQ’s Public Comment Portal
