About this milestone
First, we hold an informational public meeting about a proposed facility. Immediately after, we hold a hearing about its compliance with the land use requirements of the area where an applicant wants to build and operate it.
Both events are open to members of the public, who may attend and share comments.
What happens after the meeting and hearing
We’ll determine whether a proposed facility complies with local land use plans and zoning ordinances. For details, see RCW 80.50.090(2) and WAC 463-26-110.
