The EIS is on hold pending further review. See below. Caithness Big Sandy Project DOE/EIS-0315-S1 (Supplement Analysis) Big Sandy Energy requested transmission service to interconnect a proposed 720-MW generating facility near Wikieup, AZ., with the Mead-Phoenix Project 500-kV transmission line. Western is partnering with the Bureau of Land Management in Kingman on this project. The powerplant plan includes a proposed high-pressure natural gas pipeline, permanent access road and water pipelines that would cross BLM-administered land. Because the project could "significantly affect the quality of the human environment," studies must be done to identify environmental effects. Project updates: BLM and Western have delayed issuing the Supplemental Draft EIS at the request of the applicant, Caithness Energy. Contact information:
