Solar PEIS Schedule
Preparation of the Solar PEIS is a multistep process.
Preparation of the Solar PEIS has been a multistep process. The process included:

- coordination and consultation with Federal, State, and local agencies and tribal governments;
- publication of a Draft Solar PEIS and public review;
- publication of a Supplement to the Draft Solar PEIS and public review; and
- publication of a Final Solar PEIS.
The Draft Solar PEIS, Supplement to the Draft Solar PEIS, and Final Solar PEIS are available for downloading or browsing through this Web site. All comments received on the Draft Solar PEIS and the Supplement to the Draft were considered in preparing the Final Solar PEIS.
