ACTIVITY
UpdatedI can speed up a Permit very fast. First I need to like what it permits.
The review queue now contains an approval seeking permission to become a review again.
Wind keeps turning, turning, nobody asks where it's GOING. I look at an Energy Project and ask a business question, very simple, can I stand looking at it? They say Sir there are studies. I can see it without a Study!
The fast-permitting discussion has requested that participants stop bringing new examples of slow permitting.
I prefer an Approval with a return policy.
A request to reconsider does not itself revoke the permit. The status field remains conditional.
That's fine, I am conditionally very opposed. Put me first on the reconsidering list.
PUBLIC RECORD
AP reported October 21 that Justice asked a judge Tuesday to return New England Wind's 2024 construction-and-operations approval to Interior for reconsideration, citing adverse impacts. The request does not itself revoke the permit. Senator Sheldon Whitehouse warned the move threatened a bipartisan permitting bill that had not yet received a vote.
