● Participate in coalition spaces such as Michigan Energy Michigan Jobs (MEMJ), Michigan Environmental Justice Coalition (MEJC), Michigan Alliance for Justice in Climate (MAJIC), and We The People MI (WTPMI) to contribute FETP's regulatory experience and perspective.
● Support year 1 Expert Witness(es), which are usually technical and subject matter experts, community-based experts sharing their lived experiences, and staff witnesses from FETP leadership organizations providing testimony in DTE and Consumers Energy cases.
● Provide updates and information regarding decision outcomes about litigation and strategy during bi-weekly meetings with Soulardarity, We Want Green Too, Urban Core Collective, Abrams Environmental Law Clinic, and other parties upon consent.
