Now's your chance to speak up for clean water and healthy lands in your community!

Each year, the Fairfax County Environmental Quality Advisory Council (EQAC) holds a public hearing to obtain input on issues of environmental concern.

EQAC encourages you to attend the public hearing to share your views on the state of the environment and to identify environmental issues applicable to Fairfax County. 

Full hearing details can be found on the official page here:
