Blog: Delta Independent Science Board requests extension on Delta tunnel Draft EIR comments
On September 2, 2022, Lisa Wainger, the new Chair of the Delta Independent Science Board, sent a letter to the Department of Water Resources Director, Karla Nemeth, asking for a 30 day extension of time to comment on the Delta Conveyance Project Draft EIR. The DISB Chair’s letter gave the following reasons for asking for the extension: We have been actively working to review the document, but more time would be helpful for the following reasons. First, we are finding that the main chapters do not have sufficient information to judge the quality of methods and sources of uncertainty, and so we need more time to review the appendices and other supporting materials.
