""Timed nicely and well spread out.""

"""Good to hear some vision from the leader of EGLE and what the ""department is working on."""

"It gave me hope to see someone in EGLE on the cutting edge of these technological advancements for monitoring, emissions estimation and data analytics, in collaboration with other agencies and academics, and with public health equity in mind.?"

"Thanks for educating us on the importance of the applicant to record their consideration of alternatives during all phases of the planning and permitting process."

"The information given about inspections and reporting requirements was very enlightening."

"Very nice to actually be able to speak to an inspector- my inspector, as it turns out - in person."

"Good mix of available vendors to talk to and network."
