To facilitate our ability to address negative impacts on affected communities, we often employ community liaison officers who engage with local stakeholders to gather feedback and address grievances related to our projects, particularly during the planning and execution phases. We use various methods and channels to collect community input, including hosting informational town halls and open forums, telephone lines, emails, and social media as well as designated drop-off boxes in locations to allow residents to submit concerns anonymously.
Additionally, our Whistleblower Hotline enables individuals in affected communities to report any inappropriate or illegal conduct confidentially.
