    The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has announced the availability of the Record of Decision (ROD) and Approved Resource Management Plan Amendment (RMPA) for the Rough Hat Clark Solar Project in Clark County, Nevada. This project involves constructing a 400-megawatt solar power facility and a 700-megawatt battery energy storage system on BLM-managed land. The Department of the Interior has approved the BLM's decision to issue a right-of-way grant for the project, which includes changing the visual resource management classification of the area. The RMPA faced public protests and a Governor's review, but these processes were resolved without objections to the plan.

    The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has released a Draft Environmental Impact Statement for the proposed Ranegras Plains Energy Center project in La Paz County, Arizona. This project involves constructing a large-scale solar energy facility on public lands and requires a right-of-way grant for its development. The BLM outlines several project alternatives, including a preferred option that minimizes soil impacts. They are seeking public comments on the Draft EIS within 45 days of its announcement, and they plan to host a virtual public meeting to discuss the project further.
