The department must ensure that site release information and decisions concerning the corrective action plan are made available to the public for inspection upon request.\n\nC. Before approving a corrective action plan, the department may hold a public meeting to consider comments on the proposed corrective action plan if there is sufficient public interest, or for any other reason.\n\nD.
