Issue Task Force

The PLT, the Technical Team, or the Project Staff may form an Issue Task Force as needed to reach the project goals. An Issue Task Force will have focused topics and will work from a plan that outlines the actions needed to make a recommendation within a given timeframe.

The Issue Task Force will be responsible for documenting the process and making recommendations.
