The goal of this project is to pursue multiple use of the Christmas Valley Backscatter site to support national defense and renewable energy.
The Oregon Solutions process is designed to leverage other community, state, and federal resources for the project, as well as delineating roles and responsibilities for project implementation. The goals of this project are:
1.) Define the existing infrastructure of the backscatter site.
2.) Define and analyze options for land transfer.
3.) Define military options for use of site.
4.) Define renewable energy options and development while ensuring energy security to the military and minimizing impact to military missions
