Community Land & Water Coalition and Carver Concerned Citizens October 13, 2022 press release on Cranberry Point:

There are steps in the process:

An “Environmental Notification Form” (ENF)

Then a “Draft Environmental Impact Report” the public gets to comment on, and a “Supplemental Environmental Impact Report” (SEIR). The SEIR for Cranberry Point is here.

Finally, a “Final Environmental Impact Report” (FEIR) that is usually just a rubber stamp.
