New York S08519 amends the public service law to introduce several reforms for the Office of Renewable Energy Siting (ORES) oversight of major renewable energy and electric transmission facilities. The bill mandates that ORES maintain a centralized, publicly accessible online dashboard with up-to-date information on all projects under review. It also requires ORES to issue a written summary of public comments and an assessment of comments received. The bill sets deadlines for ORES to make final decisions on siting permits, with specific timeframes for major renewable energy facilities.
