What alternatives will be analyzed in the Solar Energy Development PEIS?
NEW! Two alternatives are planned for consideration in the PEIS, a no action alternative and a program development alternative. For the Program Development alternative, the Agencies will create a reasonably foreseeable development (RFD) scenario to define the potential for future utility-scale solar energy development activities over a 20-year study period. For the BLM, this process will identify which BLM land use plans might be amended. The Program Development alternative will include the designation of some areas as solar energy zones.
