These public meetings are generally held in Seattle at NJP’s main administrative office and usually commence at 9:00 a.m. Please see the Board’s meetings policy and code of conduct. For cost economy reasons, and to accommodate board member travel, specific meeting sites and times may vary. All meetings are open, except that limited portions may be closed, pursuant to a vote of a majority of the Board of Directors, to hold an executive session. Any such closed sessions will be as authorized by pertinent laws and regulations and will be duly noted, in summary form, in open session and corresponding minutes. Closed sessions will also be formally certified by the program's Executive Director or General Counsel as authorized. A copy of the certification will be maintained for public inspection at NJP’s main office located at 401 Second Avenue South, Suite 407, Seattle, Washington 98104, and will be otherwise available upon request.
