Multilingual Press Conference

This spring, the Interstate Bridge Replacement program anticipates publishing our upcoming Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (Draft SEIS), which will be followed by a 60-day public comment period. In our ongoing efforts to conduct broad community engagement with equity priority communities, the IBR program will host a multilingual press conference with a live question and answer session. The purpose of these event is to encourage journalists from equity priority media outlets to inform their communities of the program and the opportunity to provide input on the program’s upcoming Draft SEIS.

In an effort to center equity, this event is reserved for journalists and community-based organizations that serve equity priority community members: BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color), people with disabilities, individuals with limited English proficiency, and immigrants and refugees.

Journalists serving lower income and houseless individuals and families, young people (25 and under) and older adults (65 and older) will be granted registration access as space allows. News media serving the general public will also have access as space is available.

The deadline to register for the virtual press conference is 11:59 p.m. on Monday, March 11, 2024.
On the registration, please indicate your language needs and the program will try to have interpreters present.

The webinar will be recorded and shared with the public.
