The City has convened an expert panel that met for the first time on April 11, 2019. The panel includes a variety of experts who will broadly review the BQE Project, in consultation with the community, and make advisory recommendations. NYC DOT will not begin the formal National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) environmental review process until after that panel issues its recommendations. Once the formal environmental review process begins, the public will have additional opportunities to both formally and informally participate.
