JLUS Technical Advisory Committee (TACs). The purpose of the Technical
Advisory Committees (TACs) is to provide technical expertise, feedback, and
suggestions to the JLUS team and to serve as communications liaisons to
their respective organizations. Because of the geographic expanse of the
JLUS Study Area, two separate TACs were created to assist with the technical
aspects of the Seymour Johnson and DCR JLUS. One of the TACs focused on
the portions of the Study Area surrounding Seymour Johnson AFB, including
Wayne County and the City of Goldsboro. A second TAC focused on the
portions of the study area associated with the DCR, including the counties of
Beaufort, Bertie, Dare, Hyde, Tyrrell, Washington and the City of Washington.
The TACs identified and addressed technical issues, provided feedback on
report development, and assisted in the development and evaluation of
implementation strategies and tools. These stakeholders engaged with the
PC in an advisory role. The responsibilities and list of participants for the JLUS
sponsors, the PC, and the TACs are identified in Tables 1‐1, 1‐2, and 1‐3,
respectively.
