Kuntal mentioned the need for the Working Group to provide clarification on the scope of an online Uniform Permit Application for the IT Subcommittee. Kuntal also asked whether initial implementation of ePermits would include workflow/automated routing since that would likely require more intra-subcommittee coordination.Tom Dobbs reported on behalf of Vicki Morrow, out on medical leave, for the GIS Subcommittee.
