Minas Basin Community Forums
Just to give one example of a project undertaken by a working group – the Minas Basin Working Group arranged a series of community forums in several towns around the Minas Basin to gather public input on a variety of environmental issues  and to help the communities develop plans to address their priority issues. Background documents were prepared in support of the consultation process. Over the years working groups have carried out similar consultations on a variety of issues. BoFEP has earned a reputation as an impartial intermediary and information source on controversial topics.
