Baker, on March 12, 2020, after having proclaimed, on March 10, 2020, a STATE OF EMERGENCY in the Commonwealth due to the outbreak of the 2019 novel coronavirus, known as COVID-19.). Mr. Lamb further reported that the documents for this meeting, which had been provided electronically to the Committee and would be available upon request, were those listed as Documents Presented. Any votes during this meeting would be taken by a roll call. This meeting is being recorded to assist in preparing Minutes, and the recording would be deleted once the Minutes were approved. Mr. Lamb took a roll-call vote and confirmed that five Committee members were remotely participating. Discussion of DPF's Long Range Capital Planning Report (based on the contracted Assessment) Mr. Lamb advised that as the Committee members had been provided early access to the full Assessment presentation, this meeting would focus first on Mr. Cronin's initial overview of the Assessment and his Department's approach to that 20-year-forecast data, and then to a Question & Answer (Q&A) session initiated by this Committee's member questions and then by others present with Mr. Cronin answering to the extent he could. Mr. Lamb called on Mr. Cronin for the overview. Page 1 of 2
