A follow-up study to evaluate the IJC'S 1974 hearings / Margaret Sinclair.: En37-269/1976E-PDF

"This report is a follow-up to a 1974 study which evaluated eighteen public hearings conducted by the International Joint Commission in 1973. The present study examines thirteen public hearings which were held by the IJC in late 1974 on the subject of further regulation of Great Lakes water levels. In this set of hearings, several changes were made from previous hearings: increased advance publicity, including the use of paid advertising; evening hearings; an illustrated summary report in layman's language; a hearings fact sheet; and registration cards for all attendees to sign. The main purpose of this report is to compare the lake levels hearings held in 1973 with those in 1974. The same questionnaire was given to participants at both sets of hearings. The answers to both are used as the basis of comparison"--Summary and recommendations, page ii.
