  • Provide comments on affected resources, issues to be considered, and potential alternatives;
  • Read frequently asked questions and answers and pose additional questions for Reclamation.

The virtual meeting room website is optimized for mobile access, which enables users to utilize the meeting features on their phones as well as a computer.
