Is it more effective if the experts cited respond jointly? separately? Is it better to respond by chapter? Who is considered to have a more "legitimacy" in submitting comments? How are comments weighted in the review process? Is there evidence that the comments make a difference?

Yeah makes sense… you may also have holidays in Dec that could alter driving and traffic.

Don’t know. Note the report cannot be “cancelled” by the executive but the law does not explicitly require external experts or give details about their selection

As I understand it the executive can fire us w/o reason (we’re not paid btw) but they have to produce the NCA report at least every 4 yrs

It was an honor for me to serve as one of the authors of the economics chapter alongside a distinguished and professional group of experts.

I cannot overstate how serious and non partisan this group was.
