At Least Five (5) Years To Get Environomental Impact Statement on Federal Land

The administration's folks are in Wyoming to talk about the president's push for renewable energy (wind energy).

Among many issues to be discussed is how long it takes to get anything done on Federal land.

A spokesman said it can often take at least five years to get an environmental impact statement for a long transmission line — an important step in the line's construction.

And folks wonder why it takes so long to get anything done in Washington.
