PUBLIC ENCOURAGED
TO ATTEND PUBLIC HEARINGS
As part of the environmental process, members of the public are encouraged to attend and provide feedback at any of five planned public hearings.

The purpose of the upcoming public hearings is to present project information and allow members of the public to provide comments on the supplemental environmental assessment. The same information will be presented at each hearing in Ohio, Kentucky, and online.

During each in-person hearing, participants may browse project exhibits, review project information, talk one-on-one with project team members, and provide a written or verbal comment about the project. A formal presentation about the project will begin one hour after the hearing's start.

Afterward, attendees will have an opportunity to make comments at a microphone, addressing the project team from the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) and the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC). All comments will be transcribed and included in the project's public record. Anyone wishing to speak at an in-person hearing is asked to register when arriving at the hearing. Comments will be limited to two minutes. No responses to comments will be provided at the hearing; the project team will respond in writing to all comments at a later date.

5:30 to 7 p.m.
The virtual public hearing will begin with a formal presentation about the project.

No responses to comments will be provided at the hearing; the project team will respond in writing to all comments at a later date.
