The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency would like your
feedback on our draft environmental justice framework. This will be our
plan for reducing pollution, increasing livability and preventing harm in
historically overburdened communities. Environmental justice means
that all people – regardless of their race, color, national
origin or income – benefit from equal levels of environmental protection. It also means that we actively
seek out the involvement of people who may be affected, increasing our work in
certain neighborhoods and communities around the state.
For more information and a copy of this plan, please visit www.pca.state.mn.us/ej.
Please provide your feedback on this draft by July 15,
2015.
Written comments may be submitted to ned.brooks@state.mn.us. You may
also attend a meeting to learn more about this plan and offer your comments in
person. Meetings will begin with an overview of the plan followed by a
discussion and comment period. Meetings are scheduled for:
