Stakeholder Advisory Committees provide a structured format for local stakeholder input, separate and apart from required government processes. GCPD created these committees to provide (1) ample notice to specific stakeholder groups of project progress throughout design activities and (2) opportunities for stakeholder input congruent with the decision-making process within the design activities.
Formal public meetings and other opportunities to provide public input by law on the Coastal Texas Project are organized by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USAE) with support from the GCPD and the Texas General Land Office (GLO).
