CTA-3 Stakeholder Engagement and Communication
Stakeholder engagement strategies will be presented. In addition, a workshop will convene the broad stakeholder team that dam emergencies may affect within the county. A goal of the workshop is to engage partners that will support additional analysis and the planning process. The day prior to the workshop, core team members may meet to finalize preparations for the workshop and to tour the dam infrastructure. Additionally, facilitators will help the participants begin to pull together disparate research and analysis into an updated Information Analysis Brief (IAB) that will continue to support planning efforts. This updated IAB can also be used to inform senior leaders and receive their guidance to inform the ongoing planning process.
