I want to see what level of commitment the maintenance of the domain represents for PSP AND discuss whether we could possibly support the archive of past conference materials that WWU hosts on their "Cedar" website (which seems unlikely). | | I have a monthly check in with EPA on 1/6 and I will be away between 1/8/26-2/10. | 2025-420 | | | | | | | jon.bridgman@psp.wa.gov | | | | | | |

At that point, we’ll be asking for Comms to help with a few finishing touches before the document goes out for public review and comment.
Some of the requests we have in mind include:
• Formatting text boxes. We plan to have a few text boxes throughout the document. Currently the text we want in those boxes isn’t formatted properly.
• Plain talk. Ian did a great job with his initial plain talk review of the Topic descriptions. A lot of other edits have happened since then, so having another review would be nice if there’s capacity to do so.
• Graphics. We don’t’ want this to be a fully polished document (it’s mostly text), but there are a handful of graphics that we could create for the public review version. Again, this is capacity dependent. Here’s the folder where graphic work has already been captured: (61) Graphics | Powered by Box
• Press release/notification about Action Agenda update. TBD how widely we want to announce the public comment period, but wanted to put this on your radar. | word draft -https://pspwa.box.com/s/qivs5nmds24t3wb1jlh4hg97iazd3wrf | The Action Agenda goes live for public comment on January 5th.
