Project Approval Process
The project is located in both California and Nevada, with a majority of the project located on lands managed by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). As part of the project review and approval process for the Eldorado-Ivanpah Transmission Project, SCE must request approvals from the BLM, California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), Public Utilities Commission of Nevada, Clark County, and Boulder City.
SCE’s application will include a preliminary environmental assessment, which will identify environmental resources in the project area and evaluate potential environmental impacts for the project. The CPUC and BLM will review the application in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act and the National Environmental Policy Act and will conduct a joint environmental review for the project. This environmental review process will include environmental analysis and mitigation measures, where appropriate.
