  4. New Mexico Initiatives • New Mexico Senate Memorial 44 • RETA’s responsibilities • Develop a map and supporting documents identifying existing generation and transmission lines and renewable energy resource zones to support development • Coordinate with other agencies to prioritize regions with low or minimal land development conflicts • Identify and prioritize the best options for potential transmission corridors

  5. New Mexico Initiatives • Next Steps • Have a draft set of corridors and are beginning the public review and input phase • Plan to update the report every 6-12 months as additional information becomes available • Working with the Military Installations to minimize potential impacts on their missions • Begin work with Counties to permit corridors • Goal is to reduce time needed to site lines from years to months
