Comment deadline on Solar Energy Study Areas extended!
July 22nd, 2009 Posted by Chris Clarke in BLM, Public Lands, renewable energyBarbara Boyle at the Sierra Club informs us that the BLM is granting a 45 day extension on public comment on Interior’s Solar Energy Study areas. Those comments had been due by the end of this month. The new comment deadline will be September 14. The notice for the extension will likely appear July 27.
This gives us a month and a half extra to flood the BLM with public opinion regarding what could be the largest giveaway of public land to private industry since the era of the railroad barons.
The Interior Department has thoughtfully provided a webform for your commenting convenience. Spread the word, and bookmark DesertBlog to stay informed as the issue develops.
