  • California Desert Conservation Area Plan Amendment / Final Environmental Impact Statement for Ivanpah Solar Electric Generating System
    CALIFORNIA DESERT CONSERVATION AREA PLAN AMENDMENT / FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT FOR IVANPAH SOLAR ELECTRIC GENERATING SYSTEM FEIS-10-31 JULY 2010 BLM/CA/ES-2010-010+1793 In Reply Refer To: In reply refer to: 1610-5.G.1.4 2800lCACA-48668 Dear Reader: Enclosed is the proposed California Desert Conservation Area Plan Amendment and Final Environmental Impact Statement (CDCA Plan Amendment/FEIS) for the Ivanpah Solar Electric Generating System (ISEGS) project. The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) prepared the CDCA Plan Amendment/FEIS for the ISEGS project in consultation with cooperating agencies and California State agencies, taking into account public comments received during the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) process. The proposed plan amendment adds the Ivanpah Solar Electric Generating System project site to those identified in the current California Desert Conservation Area Plan, as amended, for solar energy production. The decision on the ISEGS project will be to approve, approve with modification, or deny issuance of the rights-of-way grants applied for by Solar Partners I, 11, IV, and VIII. This CDCA Plan Amendment/FEIS for the ISEGS project has been developed in accordance with NEPA and the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976. The CDCA Plan Amendment is based on the Mitigated Ivanpah 3 Alternative which was identified as the Agency Preferred Alternative in the Supplemental Draft Environmental Impact Statement for ISEGS, which was released on April 16,2010. The CDCA Plan Amendment/FEIS contains the proposed plan amendment, a summary of changes made between the DEIS, SDEIS and FEIS for ISEGS, an analysis of the impacts of the proposed decisions, and a summary of the written and oral comments received during the public review periods for the DEIS and for the SDEIS, and responses to comments.

    NYE COUNTY AGENDA INFORMATION FORM a Action a Presentation Presentation & Action II Department: Natural Resources Office Category: June 5,2007 Contact: Dr. James Marble Phone: 482-7238 Continued from meeting of: Return to: Natural Resources Office I Location: Tonopah Phone: 482-7238 -- Action requested: (Include what, with whom, when, where, why, how much ($) and terms) Approval of a service contract for BYU to conduct integrated geophysical investigations of shallow groundwater conditions near Ash Meadows, Nevada. Funding for this work is provided by a federal earmark grant through the National Nuclear Security Administration of the US Department of Energy. Funds are approved and currently available. Complete description of requested action: (Include, if applicable, background, impact, long-term commitment, existing county policy, hture goals, obtained by competitive bid, accountability measures) Nye County has received federal funding approved to conduct a Groundwater Evaluation in hydrographic basins in southern Nye County. The proposed work will focus on two Nye County objectives: 1) determine the best method(s) for surface geophysical estimation of depth to shallow groundwater near the Ash Meadows National Wildlife Rehge (AMNWR), and 2) investigate the geologic framework of the shallow subsurface across the Gravity Fault near the AMNWR. Work Element 1 of the approved work plan includes water resources characterization and monitoring of groundwater in the Pahrump Valley and Amargosa Desert, respectively. The geophysical survey work by BYU will further quantify the water resources in Amargosa Desert and the potential impacts of existing and future water withdrawals with respect to Devils Hole, existing water users in the basin, and future water development activities.

Torrey Pines Drive Las Vegas, NV 89130 Via email: [email protected] May 4, 2020 RE: Yellow Pine Solar Project Draft Environmental Impact Statement DOI-BLM- NV-S010-2017-0110-EIS Dear Mr. Pinales, Basin and Range Watch, Western Watersheds Project, Morongo Basin Conservation Association, Sierra Club California and Nevada Desert Committee, Desert Survivors, and Shoshone Village submits comments on the proposed 500-megawatt Yellow Pine Solar Project which would develop approximately 3,072.5-acres of Federally Threatened Mojave desert tortoise habitat and prime Mojave yucca stands in Pahrump Valley, Nevada. The project would include a photovoltaic solar energy generating facility and associated substation, and a 230-kilovolt (kV) substation and associated 230-kV transmission line. Basin and Range Watch is a 501(c)(3) non-profit working to conserve the deserts of Nevada and California and to educate the public about the diversity of life, culture, and history of the ecosystems and wild lands of the desert. Federal and many state agencies are seeking to open up millions of acres of unspoiled habitat and public land in our region to energy development. Our goal is to identify the problems of energy sprawl and find solutions that will preserve our natural ecosystems, open spaces, and quality of life for local communities. We support energy efficiency, better rooftop solar policy, and distributed generation/storage alternatives, as well as local, state and national planning for wise energy and land use following the principles of conservation biology. We have visited the site of the proposed Yellow Pine Solar Project.
