Any person interested in providing comments may do so either in person or by email.  The following protocol will govern the public hearings: 

• If you want to provide comments in person, you must only provide comment relative to the GNETS rule and limit your comments to no longer than 3 minutes in order to allow time for each person to fully express their comments.  Although not required, we suggest you prepare written comments and use the written comments to ensure your complete message is heard. A timekeeper will ensure everyone has the full 3 minutes to speak. 

• You may also submit your written comments by leaving a paper copy at the registration desk. 

• While any individual may attend any or all of the public hearings, you must decide which hearing you would want to share your comments in person. Allowing individuals to speak at only one public hearing gives everyone an opportunity to have their voice heard. 

All documents relative to the GNETS Rule public hearing can be downloaded at GNETS RULE DOCUMENTS 

If you prefer to provide written comments, you may do so by emailing your comments to GNETrule@doe.k12.ga.us. Your written comments must be received no later than April 14, 2017. 

If you have any questions please feel free to contact Julie James, paralegal at jjames@doe.k12.ga.us.
