How Does the Siting Board Process Work?
The Siting Board review process is a legal proceeding, designed to protect the rights of all participants, in which the burden is on the developer to demonstrate that the proposed project meets the requirements set forth in the Siting Board’s statute. During the proceeding, parties may present witnesses and evidence, ask written questions, examine each other’s witnesses, and make arguments as to whether the evidence indicates that a proposed project should be approved, and if so, under what conditions. The Siting Board acts as a fact finder, and approves or rejects a proposed project based on the evidence developed during the proceeding.
