This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Draft Environmental Impact Statement (Draft EIS) was prepared considering proposed amendments to the previously approved Blythe Solar Power Project (BSPP) right-of-way (ROW) grant. The BSPP received a ROW grant in 2010 to construct a 1,000-megawatt (MW) solar energy generating plant utilizing thermal parabolic trough technology on 6,831 acres of public land located near the City of Blythe in Riverside County, California (Approved Project). The current owner and holder of the BSPP right-of-way (ROW) grant (CACA-048811) has relinquished a portion of the original ROW and is requesting a variance from the existing approval to amend the grant to convert the BSPP to photovoltaic technology, reduce the size of the solar plant site, and reconfigure the solar plant site to allow transmission and access road corridors through the BSPP site for two projects proposed to the north (Modified Project). The pending decision on the BSPP is whether to approve, approve with modifications, or deny issuance of a modified ROW grant.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has received a proposal from Solar Partners I, II, IV, and VIII, limited liability corporations formed by BrightSource Energy (BrightSource), to construct and operate an approximately 4073-acre solar thermal electric generating facility in San Bernardino County, California. The project would generate up to 400 megawatts (MW) of electricity using solar thermal technology. The project would occupy 4073 acres of federal lands managed by the BLM. The proposed project would consist of three separate generating facilities, each consisting of a field of heliostats (mirrors) reflecting solar radiation to the top of a 459-foot tall power tower received unit. Heated fluid within the power tower receivers would be used to boil water to generate steam, which would turn a turbine and generate electricity. The permanent ROW required for the heliostat fields and power towers would occupy approximately 3,670 acres. An additional 377 acres would be used to support a Construction Logistics Area, and for shared facilities such as an administration building, maintenance warehouse, substation, and groundwater supply wells. Approximately 24 acres would be used for a natural gas supply pipeline ROW, and for access roads. The proposed project would cause the surface disturbance of approximately 4,073 acres during construction. Two alternatives were considered in detail in the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS), which was published on November 9, 2009. These included the proposed project alternative, and the No Action Alternative, as required by the National Environmental Policy Act as a baseline against which other action alternatives can be analyzed. Under the No Action Alternative, the BLM ROW grant to construct and operate the facility would not be authorized. Consequently, the No Action Alternative represents the continuation of the existing conditions. The Supplemental Draft EIS (SDEIS) analyzes two additional alternatives to the proposed action; a reduced acreage alternative called the Mitigated Ivanpah 3 Alternative, and a reconfigured alternative called the Modified I-15 Alternative. The facility evaluated in each of these alternatives is a solar thermal electric generating facility with a generating capacity of 370 MW. The Mitigated Ivanpah 3 Alternative would be located entirely within the same property boundaries as the proposed project, but would occupy 3564 acres, a reduction of 12.5 percent. The Modified I-15 Alternative would also occupy 3564 acres, but the arrangement of one of the three power generating units would be reconfigured from the northern portion of the facility to the southern portion. Following the receipt of public comments on the SDEIS, BLM will select a preferred alternative in the Final EIS.

Book excerpt: The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Renewable Energy Coordinating Office has prepared this Draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) in response to a right-of-way application submitted by NextLight Renewable Power, LLC (Applicant or Proponent) to construct and operate the Silver State Solar Project. The proposed project would be located on BLM-administered lands, approximately 2 miles east of Primm, in Clark County, Nevada. The Proponent is proposing to construct a concentrated solar thermal parabolic trough power plant facility, which is expected to operate for approximately 50 years. The proposed project would utilize solar photovoltaic technology, to produce 400 megawatts (MW) of renewable energy.
