“We (at COLAB) do not understand why you’re allowing a different company, 10 years later, to tier-off on a 10-year-old EIR, with different-sized wind turbines, plus 30 miles of roads and widening Miguelito Canyon Road in Lompoc. “You wouldn’t do that for a winery or an oil project. Why are you doing it for a wind project?”

This means nothing has yet been finalized.
