During the 2013 fiscal year, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) developed the Geothermal National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) Database with funding provided by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Geothermal Technologies Office (GTO). The information in the database was collected in an effort to conduct analyses on NEPA timelines (Young et al., 2014). The database was then made available to the public on OpenEI in an effort to share the data collection effort with others. OpenEI allows information related to geothermal NEPA documents from all federal agencies to be accessed and maintained in a single location so that others can utilize the data for their own analyses and so that the structure and content can be expanded for other uses. This submission includes links to the NEPA Database on OpenEI and in the Regulatory and Permitting Information Desktop (RAPID) Toolkit. Also included are a paper and poster by Young et. al presenting the NEPA Database to the Geothermal Resources Council (GRC).
