Reference is made to the above mentioned project and our discussion earlier on. An FEIR submitted to the Department on the18th of May 2015 included the assessment of three alternatives for the construction of a new substation and transmission lines. This report was later retracted citing a change on the alternatives, i.e. the extension of the substation was deemed feasible and hence had to be assessed. Taking into account all this information, we agreed on the following: i. That since the FEIR had been retracted, we can include the assessment of the extension of the substation as an alternative in the FEIR and notify the I&APs of this change and also allow for a 30 day public review period. Hope the above is a true reflection of our discussion.
