What we Heard from you

Diverse Panel of Delegates

A common theme shared was that CRI
members should be delegates representing
multiple community groups such as:

•	Affected Communities

•	Native Hawaiians

•	Community Based Organizations

Other popular suggestions:

•	Set up CRI quickly

•	Members of the CRI should have access
to experts for consultation

•	Voting should be done online

EPA's Role

EPA's role is to help facilitate the
formation of the CRI and ensure the
members have information needed to
help develop the group. Once the group
is formed, the Navy will coordinate future
meetings.

Based on the terms of the 2023 Consent
Order, that requires CRI formation, there
will be 10 members of the Community
Representation Initiative.
