To download and/or purchase this report, please visit the National Academies Press website. This book concludes that, when done correctly, public participation improves the quality of federal agencies' decisions about the environment. Well-managed public involvement also increases the legitimacy of decisions in the eyes of those affected by them, which makes it more likely that the decisions will be implemented effectively.

It details principles and approaches agencies can use to successfully involve the public. Learn More -
