Are you overwhelmed and confused by the 411-page DEIR regarding the BESS proposed on the Embarcadero in Morro Bay? Where to start? Begin with our workshops: the public workshops will provide a short orientation, study materials, resources and helpful tips for making your letter effective. We are a group of concerned Morro Bay citizens who have formed a committee to aid their neighbors in writing comments to the Draft Environmental Impact Report (DEIR) for the BESS project.Anyone who wishes to preserve the safety, natural resources, economy and character of Morro Bay is welcome. It is not necessary to be a Morro Bay voter to comment on the DEIR.
Space is limited, please pre-register. Bring your own questions, enthusiasm, laptop, pen, pencil, paper and phone. Please RSVP to Jeanne Marie Colby by TEXT: (650) 773-1381
