Cultural Resources Data
Docket# 10-CRD-1


Committee overseeing this proceeding:

Karen Douglas, Chairman and Presiding Member
Energy Commission Siting Committee

Robert B. Weisenmiller, Commissioner and Associate Member
Energy Commission Siting Committee


The Siting Committee has scheduled a consolidated hearing in the solar Application for Certification (AFC) cases listed below to consider issues relating to the potential release of certain information pertaining to cultural resources in these cases. In the Imperial Valley case confidential information was released under a nondisclosure agreement; the Bureau of Land Management has requested reconsideration of the decision to release the data. An additional request for release of information is pending in the Genesis case, and similar requests may be made in some of the remaining cases. By consolidating the matters rather than considering them individually, a uniform approach to the release of data may be established.
