I-405 (I-5 to SR-55)
Public Participation and Community Engagement
At the heart of CEQA and NEPA is the public’s interest. And at the center of OCGO is a commitment to the taxpayer.
Consistent with these public policy values, OCTA and Caltrans are implementing a public information and community engagement program that not only complies with, but exceeds public information mandates under CEQA and NEPA.
Throughout the environmental review process, OCTA and Caltrans will sustain a multimedia public communications and community engagement program intended to generate project awareness, and promote and facilitate public participation and comment.
In addition to the project webpage, the communications and engagement program will include:
-
Telephone helpline
-
Noticing and canvassing
-
Public information meetings
-
Elected official briefings
-
Community presentations
-
Social media alerts and updates
-
Open House
-
Constituent services
