<a id="pl.21.23"></a><var>21.23</var>    (e) The board may, prior to final approval of a proposed project, require preparation <br/>
<a id="pl.21.24"></a><var>21.24</var>of an environmental assessment worksheet by a responsible governmental unit selected <br/>
<a id="pl.21.25"></a><var>21.25</var>by the board for any action where environmental review under this section has not been <br/>
<a id="pl.21.26"></a><var>21.26</var>specifically provided for by rule or otherwise initiated.<br/>
<a id="pl.21.27"></a><var>21.27</var>    (f) An early and open process shall be utilized to limit the scope of the environmental <br/>
<a id="pl.21.28"></a><var>21.28</var>impact statement to a discussion of those impacts, which, because of the nature or location <br/>
<a id="pl.21.29"></a><var>21.29</var>of the project, have the potential for significant environmental effects. The same process <br/>
<a id="pl.21.30"></a><var>21.30</var>shall be utilized to determine the form, content and level of detail of the statement as well <br/>
<a id="pl.21.31"></a><var>21.31</var>as the alternatives which are appropriate for consideration in the statement. In addition, <br/>
<a id="pl.21.32"></a><var>21.32</var>the permits which will be required for the proposed action shall be identified during the <br/>
<a id="pl.21.33"></a><var>21.33</var>scoping process. Further, the process shall identify those permits for which information <br/>
<a id="pl.21.34"></a><var>21.34</var>will be developed concurrently with the environmental impact statement. The board <br/>
<a id="pl.21.35"></a><var>21.35</var>shall provide in its rules for the expeditious completion of the scoping process. The <br/>
<a id="pl.22.1"></a><var>22.1</var>determinations reached in the process shall be incorporated into the order requiring the <br/>
<a id="pl.22.2"></a><var>22.2</var>preparation of an environmental impact statement.<br/>
<a id="pl.22.3"></a><var>22.3</var>    (g) The responsible governmental unit shall, to the extent practicable, avoid <br/>
<a id="pl.22.4"></a><var>22.4</var>duplication and ensure coordination between state and federal environmental review <br/>
<a id="pl.22.5"></a><var>22.5</var>and between environmental review and environmental permitting. Whenever practical, <br/>
<a id="pl.22.6"></a><var>22.6</var>information needed by a governmental unit for making final decisions on permits <br/>
<a id="pl.22.7"></a><var>22.7</var>or other actions required for a proposed project shall be developed in conjunction <br/>
<a id="pl.22.8"></a><var>22.8</var>with the preparation of an environmental impact statement. When an environmental <br/>
<a id="pl.22.9"></a><var>22.9</var>impact statement is prepared for a project requiring multiple permits for which two or <br/>
<a id="pl.22.10"></a><var>22.10</var>more agencies' decision processes include either mandatory or discretionary hearings <br/>
<a id="pl.22.11"></a><var>22.11</var>before a hearing officer prior to the agencies' decision on the permit, the agencies <br/>
<a id="pl.22.12"></a><var>22.12</var>may, notwithstanding any law or rule to the contrary, conduct the hearings in a single <br/>
<a id="pl.22.13"></a><var>22.13</var>consolidated hearing process if requested by the proposer. All agencies having jurisdiction <br/>
<a id="pl.22.14"></a><var>22.14</var>over a permit that is included in the consolidated hearing shall participate. The responsible <br/>
<a id="pl.22.15"></a><var>22.15</var>governmental unit shall establish appropriate procedures for the consolidated hearing <br/>
<a id="pl.22.16"></a><var>22.16</var>process, including procedures to ensure that the consolidated hearing process is consistent <br/>
<a id="pl.22.17"></a><var>22.17</var>with the applicable requirements for each permit regarding the rights and duties of parties to <br/>
<a id="pl.22.18"></a><var>22.18</var>the hearing, and shall utilize the earliest applicable hearing procedure to initiate the hearing. <br/>
<a id="pl.22.19"></a><var>22.19</var>The procedures of section 
         <statute_ref>116C.28, subdivision 2</statute_ref>, apply to the consolidated hearing.<br/>
<a id="pl.22.20"></a><var>22.20</var>    (h) An environmental impact statement shall be prepared and its adequacy <br/>
<a id="pl.22.21"></a><var>22.21</var>determined within 280 days after notice of its preparation unless the time is extended by <br/>
<a id="pl.22.22"></a><var>22.22</var>consent of the parties or by the governor for good cause. The responsible governmental <br/>
<a id="pl.22.23"></a><var>22.23</var>unit shall determine the adequacy of an environmental impact statement, unless within 60 <br/>
<a id="pl.22.24"></a><var>22.24</var>days after notice is published that an environmental impact statement will be prepared, <br/>
<a id="pl.22.25"></a><var>22.25</var>the board chooses to determine the adequacy of an environmental impact statement. If an <br/>
<a id="pl.22.26"></a><var>22.26</var>environmental impact statement is found to be inadequate, the responsible governmental <br/>
<a id="pl.22.27"></a><var>22.27</var>unit shall have 60 days to prepare an adequate environmental impact statement.<br/>
<a id="pl.22.28"></a><var>22.28</var>    (i) The proposer of a specific action may include in the information submitted to the <br/>
<a id="pl.22.29"></a><var>22.29</var>responsible governmental unit a preliminary draft environmental impact statement under <br/>
<a id="pl.22.30"></a><var>22.30</var>this section on that action for review, modification, and determination of completeness and <br/>
<a id="pl.22.31"></a><var>22.31</var>adequacy by the responsible governmental unit. A preliminary draft environmental impact <br/>
<a id="pl.22.32"></a><var>22.32</var>statement prepared by the project proposer and submitted to the responsible governmental <br/>
<a id="pl.22.33"></a><var>22.33</var>unit shall identify or include as an appendix all studies and other sources of information <br/>
<a id="pl.22.34"></a><var>22.34</var>used to substantiate the analysis contained in the preliminary draft environmental impact <br/>
<a id="pl.22.35"></a><var>22.35</var>statement. The responsible governmental unit shall require additional studies, if needed, <br/>
<a id="pl.22.36"></a><var>22.36</var>and obtain from the project proposer all additional studies and information necessary for <br/>
<a id="pl.23.1"></a><var>23.1</var>the responsible governmental unit to perform its responsibility to review, modify, and <br/>
<a id="pl.23.2"></a><var>23.2</var>determine the completeness and adequacy of the environmental impact statement.<br/>
