    The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), a part of the Department of Commerce, announced an extension of 15 days for issuing a decision on an appeal related to a proposed liquefied natural gas export terminal and natural gas pipeline project on the Pacific Coast. This extension is due to the need for additional time to review the record and reach a conclusion regarding the appeal, which challenges an objection made by the Oregon Department of Land Conservation and Development. The new deadline for the decision is now set for February 9, 2021. Relevant appeal materials are accessible online through the specified NOAA docket site.

    Simple Explanation

    The NOAA needs a little more time, 15 extra days, to decide if a big plan to build a special gas terminal and long pipeline on the Pacific Coast will happen, because a group in Oregon said "no" to it. They want to carefully check everything before saying "yes" or "no."

    The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) reviewed a proposal from the Santa Clara Valley Water District to lower the water level in the Anderson Reservoir, build a new outlet tunnel, and establish measures downstream. This assessment was part of their environmental review process and aimed to determine the likely environmental impacts. FERC concluded the proposed actions would not significantly affect the environment if certain protective measures are in place. The public can access this supplemental environmental assessment through FERC's website.

    Simple Explanation

    The Santa Clara Valley Water District wants to make changes to a big water area called Anderson Reservoir by lowering the water level and building a new tunnel. The people in charge of checking how this might affect nature say it should be okay if they follow special safety rules.

    The South Sutter Water District submitted an application for a new license for the Camp Far West Hydroelectric Project, which was updated in December 2023. It's situated on the Bear River in California. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission announced that an Environmental Assessment (EA) will be prepared because the project is not expected to have a major impact on the environment. The EA will be reviewed by interested parties, and the public is encouraged to provide feedback and seek assistance from the Commission's Office of Public Participation.

    Simple Explanation

    The South Sutter Water District wants to keep using a water-powered energy project in California, and some people will check that it doesn’t harm the environment too much. The project leaders want to hear what others think and are asking for everyone's ideas and help to make sure it's safe and fair for the environment.
