I urge you to prioritize and value the voices of marginalized communities across Virginia.  To help achieve this, your regulations need to include: scheduling public hearings on permits in the directly impacted communities earlier in the process and with both in-person and hybrid  opportunities to participate; hold public hearings at times when full-time workers can attend; and provide more advance notice of when hearings will be held.

Cảm ơn quý vị.
