Process to Provide Oral Comments at Public Hearing

Anyone wishing to make an oral statement at the public hearing must do one of the following: (1) Prior to noon on March 22, 2022 notify Julie Kubelka at [email protected] of the commenter’s intent to provide an oral comment during the hearing and provide a full name and affiliation (if applicable) and, if participating by phone, the phone number that will be used to connect to the Zoom hearing; or

(2) during the public hearing, submit a request to speak using the “Chat” function on Zoom and providing the commenter’s full name and affiliation (if applicable); or

(3) request to speak when the Hearing Officer asks if there are any additional speakers that wish to provide an oral comment after all others who have either registered in advance or submitted a request via Chat have spoken. (For such commenters, the Hearing Officer will unmute the video and phone for this purpose.)

Oral comments will generally be heard in the order in which requests to speak are received. Please contact Julie Kubelka at 212-627-2020 or via email at [email protected] one week prior to the hearing date if you need a reasonable accommodation, such as a sign language interpreter or foreign language interpreter, in order to participate in the public hearing.
