The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has released the final Environmental Impact Statement for the Jove Solar Project, which could generate 600 MW if approved.
Jove Solar proposes to construct, operate, maintain and eventually decommission a utility-scale solar facility and potential battery energy storage system on 3,495 acres of public land and 38 acres of county lands in La Paz County, Ariz. The project would connect to the 500 kV Cielo Azul switching station and Ten West Link transmission line.
The BLM’s preferred alternative would avoid construction within the desert wash that crosses the project, preserve the channel floodplain, maintain wildlife habitat connectivity and avoid areas of environmental sensitivity.
“The BLM supports efficient development of renewable energy on our nation’s public lands to reach the Biden-Harris administration’s goal of a carbon pollution-free power sector by 2035,” says Ray Castro, BLM Yuma field manager.
“We will continue to engage with Tribal, federal, state and local governments, local communities, stakeholder groups and industry as this project moves toward implementation.”
A Notice of Availability will publish in the Federal Register. Project information is available at the BLM National NEPA Register.

BLM Releases Final Environmental Analysis for Jove Solar Project
Sadly, a significant number of U.S. voters believe what House Speaker Mike Johnson says here, i.e., that “God isn’t finished with America yet,” and that “We need people (from the Republican party) of character and integrity,” as if there are any.
But what is that number, roughly?
After living through the first 18 month of Trump’s second term, with all the lies, the incompetence, and the corruption, this number has dwindled to a point that the Republicans are bracing themselves for the worst.
Republicans Manipulate American’s Ignorance — and it Doesn’t Take Too Much Skill
I’m sure some of these excuses are extremely common in the minds of those making huge profits by destroying our planet.
