- X-topic: Outreach
Chuck Elkins asks about the EPA's compiling a list of (in my jargon, not his) "potentially interested parties."
Elkins wrote: "As a way to supplement EPA's own outreach efforts, would it make sense to start a registry of people who are interested in particular subjects? This might work particularly well for geographically-based concerns...."
Folks participating in this exercise might be interested in a cognate effort by the Department of Energy's NEPA folks, which could serve as a model. The "Directory of Potential Stakeholders for Department of Energy Actions under the National Environmental Policy Act" is now in its 15th Edition. I believe DOE updates it every six months. To take a peek at this 97-page document, go to
http://tis-nt.eh.doe.gov/nepa/tools/tools.htm
near the bottom of this page is a link to an Acrobat file,
http://tis-nt.eh.doe.gov/nepa/tools/0101stakeholders.pdf
The directory lists contact info for everyone who's ever asked DOE for NEPA documents anywhere. Among other things listed are contacts for all related federal and state agencies, non-governmental organizations, and individuals. Who knows, you might find yourself in this nifty book!
