EMC Committees are formed on an as-needed basis by vote of the Council to address particular topics or study issues. Committees meet independently to complete their work. Final results, recommendations, and actions of the committees are approved by the full EMC, with the exception of the Environmental Review Committee, which provides written comments on actions subject to time-sensitive State Environmental Quality Review. EMC Members must participate on at least one of the Council's committees or serve as a liaison to another organization.
