This document provides guidance on obtaining informed consent for projects. It outlines underlying principles such as ensuring the input of those affected will inform decisions. Key stakeholders to engage include those with real or perceived negative impacts, who self-identify as concerned, and who contact officials. The objectives are to demonstrate there is a serious problem to address, that the agency is responsible for the solution, the approach is reasonable, and stakeholders' concerns are heard. Informed consent requires systematic outreach and communication to develop willingness among opponents by achieving objectives like transparency.
