This just in… from Cadiz: Because of changes to the project, a new EIR is forthcoming

Posted by: Aqua Blog Maven on August 26, 2009 at 2:24 pm

From Courtney Degener at Cadiz, Inc.:

“I saw the link on Aquafornia today regarding the original Environmental Impact Report/ Environmental Impact Statement for the Cadiz Project.

As our General Counsel, Scott Slater, wrote in the piece you posted a few weeks ago, because of changes made to the Project since the original EIR/EIS was published in 2001, including a change to the pipeline alignment and new project participants, Cadiz is pursuing a new EIR in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act.

In the coming months we will release a draft of the new EIR and there will be a comment period and numerous opportunities for the public to review this new document.

While we believe the original EIR/EIS is informative, the project is now much different than was contemplated in 2001. We hope that your readers will review this new EIR and send comments. As soon as the new EIR is available, we will publish it on our website.”
