This often involves coordinating input from multiple stakeholders, including federal, state, and local agencies, as well as the public. Managing complex documentation, ensuring compliance with evolving regulations, and addressing potential conflicts between stakeholder interests are common hurdles. Success in this role requires strong project management skills and the ability to facilitate collaboration across multidisciplinary teams.
