The following Committee Schedule lists the events that must occur in order to meet the 12-month review period.
Several deadlines are contingent upon reviews to be conducted by federal, state, and local agencies.
The Committee recognizes that delays in the completion of those reviews may necessitate schedule modifications. While the Commission staff is responsible for meeting Committee deadlines for the filings produced by the staff, the Applicant bears the burden of proof in this proceeding and must be responsible for the timeliness of its own filings as well as those of all other agencies outside the Commission. Thus, a delay by an agency other than the Commission staff in filing a required document may result in a necessary extension to the 12-month schedule. The Committee may modify the schedule at any time either upon its own motion or that of a party. The schedule requires periodic status reports from the parties to determine whether case development is progressing satisfactorily, and to bring potential schedule delays or other relevant matters to the Committee's attention.
