cab-question2: Following a NRC public hearing announcing the beginning of the decommissioning process, PG&E itself drew up a list of candidates and invited them to participate in the CAB. There is no formal charter that I am aware of.

cab-question4: There have been 15 members from the community, including employees of PG&E, Several changes have occurred, and replacements were found.

cab-question5: It had been up to PG&E to invite board members, and introduce them to the CAB cab-question6: No terms.

cab-question7: No rules or protocols, other than PG&E running the show.

cab-question8: PG&E provides everything, although they will not let CAB members use AV equipment without prior screening.

cab-question9: PG&E funds everything, including dinner for our evening meetings. At the start there were several field trips off site, but the CAB usually tours the site to see the progress. A few little Xmas gifts were offered early on.

cab-question10: Topics discussed included technology, economics and financials, and impacts on the local environment and community.

cab-question11: The board pushed very hard for a complete cleanup and restoration of the site situated on Humboldt Bay.

cab-question13: The diverse board is free to talk with the public through whatever forum they choose.

cab-question14: Local Watchdog!

cab-question15: Limited opportunity to have the CAB be a major spokesperson fo the decommissioning.

cab-question16: The CAB was thrown together with a diverse group of citizens, and expected to partake in a very, very technical and complex process, without any formal education. It was learn as you go, usually with members just asking questions.

The CAB should have more structure and opportunity for more public infomation decimination and input.
