# §10010.13. Scoping.

- (a) The invitation requirement in [40 CFR 1501.7(a)(1)](/cfr/40/1501.7.md?p=a-1) may be satisfied by including such an invitation in the NOI.
- (b) If a scoping meeting is held, consensus is desirable; however, the lead agency is ultimately responsible for the scope of an EIS. In the case of procedures involving joint-lead agencies, all joint-lead agencies share this responsibility.
