The Preliminary Environmental Information Report (PEIR) and associated Non-technical Summary (NTS) have been published on the Project website. 

A Document Navigation Booklet and Project Information Booklet have been produced to provide further details about the consultation and proposals for the Project.

• the strategic masterplan for the solar sites;
• the cable route search corridor for the underground grid connection; and,
• proposed measures to reduce the environmental effects of the Project.
