Development permit delayed for 690 MW solar project in Nevada
The US Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has missed the deadline and delayed again the issuance of the development permit for the 690 MW Gemini solar photovoltaic plant in Nevada.
The facility will be developed on about 7,100 acres of BLM administered land that is located some 33 miles (53.1 km) northeast of Las Vegas and directly south of the Moapa River Indian Reservation. A draft agreement between BLM and the Nevada State Historic Preservation Office has determined that the project would have a visual impact on a historic railroad camp and certain old travel and trade routes.
NV Energy has secured approval from the Public Utilities Commission of Nevada (PUCN) for the development of the project. Quinbrook Infrastructure Partners and Arevia Power develop the solar facility.
