The objectives of these public meetings are to:
- Provide the public with a summary of suggested alternative program features from the Aug. 23, 2021 Request for Information and the exploratory questions included in the corresponding Federal Register Request for Information
- Provide the public with information about how to access the notice and submit written comments
- Provide the public an opportunity to provide verbal feedback
All meetings were open to the public and covered the same content. Participants registered in advance and were confirmed on a first-come, first-served basis. Public meeting participation was capped to 500 attendees.
