Pathway is a $1.7 to $2 billion investment proposed by Xcel Energy to improve the state's electric grid and enable future renewable energy development around the state. Pathway will ensure safe, reliable and economical electric service to the public, boost the regional economy, and create jobs during its construction. Pathway includes: • Installation of approximately 560 to 650 miles of new 345-kilovolt(kV) double-circuit transmission line in 13 to 14 counties (depending on final route selection) • Construction of four new electric substations (Canal Crossing, Goose Creek, May Valley, and Longhorn) • Expansion of, or equipment additions at, four existing electric substations (Fort St. Vrain, Pawnee, Harvest Mile, and Tundra) Pathway will be constructed in five segments, with an optional sixth segment(Extension), with each new or expanded electric substation serving as endpoints for the transmission line segments. The transmission line segment Study Areas, existing substation locations and approximate locations of new electric substations are shown in the following graphic. These are discussed in more detail in Section 3 of this document.

Colorado's Power Pathway Overview A fifth new substation (Sandstone Substation) may be constructed near the western end of Segment 4 and southern end of Segment 5 if an additional substation is determined to be necessary in this area to provide a location for future generation interconnections. A decision regarding the need for this substation will likely be made in early 2023. The new 345-kV double circuit transmission line will be constructed using steel poles. A single pole will be used at most locations; however, two poles will be required for certain high loading locations, such as at angles where the line changes direction. Each pole will be placed on a concrete foundation except for certain poles located in sandy soils in the northern portion of Segment 2; these may be placed using vibratory caissons. Voltage, conductor sag, pole type, terrain, length of span between transmission poles, and minimum clearances of existing buildings influence the necessary height of transmission poles. The transmission poles will be weathering steel and a brown or rust color. A representative transmission line is shown in the following graphic. 6 it TETRA TECH Colorado's Power Pathway Routing and Siting Study Segment 1: Fort St.Vrain—Canal Crossing \ SHIELD WIRE INSULATOR CONDUCTOR tiY!

Transmission substations include electrical equipment located inside a fenced area. Pathway involves expansion of, or equipment additions, at four existing electric substations (Fort St. Vrain, Pawnee, Tundra, and Harvest Mile)and construction of new electric substations (Canal Crossing, Goose Creek, May Valley, and Longhorn). Each new electric substation will be constructed on a parcel of land owned in fee by Public Service Company of Colorado. The existing electric substations (Fort St. Vrain, Pawnee, Tundra, and Harvest Mile)will be expanded or equipment added within the existing fence line to accommodate the new transmission lines and the associated equipment needed to operate the lines. The four new electric substations (Canal Crossing, Goose Creek, May Valley, and Longhorn)will be 345-kV switching stations. A switching station is a type TETRA TECH 7 Routing and Siting Study Colorado's Power Pathway Segment 1: Fort St.Vrain—Canal Crossing of electric substation that operates at a single voltage level and, therefore, does not have transformers that change or"transform" voltage from one voltage level to another. 1.2 Purpose and Need The Eastern Plains region of Colorado is one of the nation's best areas for wind and solar energy generation, but it does not currently have a network transmission system that can integrate new generation resources into the state's interconnected grid system which is needed to meet Colorado's clean energy goals. Pathway will support Xcel Energy's Clean Energy Plan (Xcel Energy 2021)that is estimated to deliver as much as an 85 percent reduction in carbon dioxide emissions by 2030 and add approximately 5,000 megawatts of new wind, solar, and other resources. Pathway will help meet the state's growing electricity needs, improve reliability, safety and affordability, and enable the transition to clean energy(Xcel Energy 2021). Pathway will allow developers of new energy generation projects to interconnect energy resources located in the areas of the state that are underserved by backbone transmission infrastructure and also allow Xcel Energy to deliver that energy electric customers. Transmission line Segment 2 and Segment 3 and associated new electric substations and substation expansions will be completed in 2025, assuming required approvals are obtained. These segments will provide interconnection locations for qualified renewable energy resources that become commercially operational by the end of 2025 to take advantage of the Federal Production Tax Credit(PTC) program. The PTC is currently set to expire at the end of 2025. Taking advantage of the PTC will lower the cost of installing new renewable generation facilities, thereby benefiting all Colorado electric customers. With these new projects come jobs, lease revenue, and increased tax revenue for rural communities. In March 2021, Xcel Energy filed a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity (CPCN) application with the Colorado Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) describing the purpose, need and public benefits of constructing Pathway. In February 2022, the CPUC provided verbal approval, and in June 2022, CPUC provided written approval of the CPCN for Segments 1-5, and conditional approval for the Extension, based on a determination that Pathway is in the public interest. While the CPUC determines a public need for Pathway, it does not approve the location of specific project facilities. The location and land use approvals will be made through easement negotiations with landowners and the land use approval process in the applicable jurisdictions where the Pathway facilities will be located. 1.3 Schedule Many variables factor into the schedule for projects of this magnitude. The construction schedule is contingent on acquiring all necessary land rights and permits. Pathway will be constructed and brought in-service in phases. The estimated construction timeline for each segment and substation and anticipated in-service dates are shown in Table 2. 8 TETRA TECH Colorado's Power Pathway Routing and Siting Study Segment 1: Fort St.Vrain—Canal Crossing Table 2: Pathway Schedule Segment&Substation Construction In-Service Segment 1 &Fort St.Vrain Substation expansion Spring 2024—Spring 2026 Spring 2026 Segment 2&New Canal Crossing&Goose Creek substations& Summer 2023—Fall 2025 Fall 2025 Pawnee Substation equipment additions Segment 3&New May Valley Substation Summer 2023—Fall 2025 Fall 2025 Segment 4&Tundra Substation expansion Spring 2025—Spring 2027 Spring 2027 Segment 5&Harvest Mile Substation expansion Spring 2025—Spring 2027 Spring 2027 Extension&New Longhorn Substation To be determined To be determined 2.0 Overview Pathway routing and siting analysis is divided by segment and documented in a series of six Routing and Siting studies. Each Routing and Siting Study is interrelated because of the overlap in segment Study Areas and shared electric substation endpoints. Each Routing and Siting Study documents the process used to review and consider reasonable routing and siting alternatives for the new major electrical facilities (pursuant to Colorado Revised Statute 29-20-108 (4) (a) and (b)). The Routing and Siting studies do not identify specific construction-related components, such as laydown/staging yards, access routes and haul routes. The Routing and Siting studies also do not assess the siting of the substation expansions and equipment additions as the substations are existing and, in these cases, new substations are not needed from system planning and cost perspectives. Table 3 outlines Pathway components discussed in each Routing and Siting Study. This Routing and Siting Study documents the process used to identify the preferred transmission line route for Segment 1.

The Segment 1 Study Area (discussed in Section 3.1.1)spans two counties in eastern Colorado: Weld County and Morgan County. The existing Fort St. Vrain Substation will be expanded, and a new 345-kV station arrangement will be established on land currently owned by Public Service of Colorado. Construction of the Segment 1 transmission line and expansion activities at the Fort St. Vrain Substation are anticipated to begin in 2024 and be complete in 2026. 10 TETRA TECH Colorado's Power Pathway Routing and Siting Study Segment 1: Fort St. Vrain—Canal Crossing 3.0 Routing and Siting Routing a transmission line requires a comprehensive review of factors including electric system planning, project costs, environmental and cultural resources, public involvement, regulatory compliance, existing and planned land use, land rights and system engineering. As shown in the following graphic, the five- step routing and siting process assesses constraints and opportunities between segment endpoints to ultimately identify the preferred route location for the transmission line.

The Study Areas initially identified for each segment were generally 20 miles wide and were developed based on the location of the substation endpoints. Substation Siting Study Areas are located at the junction of adjacent segments where new substations will serve as interconnection points. i' TETRA TECH 11 Routing and Siting Study Colorado's Power Pathway Segment 1: Fort St.Vrain—Canal Crossing The Study Area for Segment 1, discussed in Section 3.1.1, and the existing Fort St. Vrain Substation are shown in Figure 1. This Routing and Siting Study does not assess the siting of the expansion at the Fort St. Vrain Substation as the substation is existing and the expansion will be located on Xcel Energy's property. The new Canal Crossing Siting Area was evaluated in the Segment 2 Routing and Siting Study and resulted in the selection of the Canal Crossing Substation location. 3.1.1 Transmission Line Study Area The area between the existing Fort St. Vrain Substation and the new Canal Crossing Substation is located within Weld and Morgan counties. The 20-mile-wide Segment 1 Study Area extends east to west and is roughly bounded by Frontier Street(Weld County Road 15)to the west, the South Platte River to the north, the Weld/Adams county line to the south, and State Highway 71 to the east. The Study Area is bisected by Interstate 76 (1-76) running northeast/southwest. The existing Fort St. Vrain Substation is located northwest of the Town of Platteville near the western edge of the Study Area. 3.1.2 Public Outreach — Virtual Introductory Meetings Three virtual introductory meetings were held in June 2021 to provide a platform to inform the public and key stakeholders about Pathway, gather feedback, and address questions and concerns. These meetings were held virtually due to restrictions on large gatherings due to COVID-19. Prior to the virtual introductory meetings, a website, email address, and telephone hotline were developed to share information about Pathway and to provide multiple ways for the public and stakeholders to communicate with representatives. A total of 62,770 postcards were sent to all mailing addresses within the segment Study Areas ahead of the meetings to provide information on meeting dates, times, and connection information. Fourteen newspaper ads, two social media postings (one Facebook, one Twitter), and hotline, email, and website updates also announced the meetings to the interested public. Attendance at the three virtual introductory meetings is shown in Table 4. Table 4:Virtual Introductory Meeting Attendance Meeting Attendance June 22,9 a.m. 104 attendees June 29,noon 72 attendees June 29,6 p.m. 35 attendees A PowerPoint presentation was provided during each meeting to introduce the Pathway team, Xcel Energy as a company, and provide information on the need, community and electric system benefits, regulatory review, routing and siting process, and schedule. A Question and Answer(Q&A) session was held after the presentation to discuss topics including cost, design and engineering, siting and land rights, vegetation management, and construction. Over the three meetings, a total of 113 questions were asked by meeting attendees and covered the following topics: 12 TETRA TECH Colorado's Power Pathway Routing and Siting Study Segment 1: Fort St.Vrain—Canal Crossing • Project benefits • Vegetation management and wildfire • Routing and Siting mitigation • Health and safety • Access to presentation and maps • Resource planning and renewables • Project timeline and communication • Landowner compensation and property channels values • Project cost and funding 3.2 Step 2: Suitability Analysis The comprehensive Suitability Analysis involved gathering and mapping resource, land use, and infrastructure data for the Study Area and Siting Study Area; determining routing and siting criteria based on compatibility with the proposed electric infrastructure; and visiting the Study and Siting Study Areas to verify mapped data and to meet with local jurisdictions and key stakeholders to gather feedback. Upon review of the data generated from these activities, level of suitability was mapped across the Study and Siting Study Areas. The stages and results of the Suitability Analysis for Segment 1 are further described in Sections 3.2.1 through 3.2.4. 3.2.1 Data Collection Publicly available resource data, including existing transmission corridors, land use, oil and gas infrastructure, surface water, critical habitat,jurisdiction and formally designated lands, and conservation easements were mapped to aid in the review of the Study and Siting Study Areas. The resource data identified major constraints and opportunities along Segment 2 that served as an indicator of routing and permitting complexity. The resource data were mapped to determine the presence of compatible and incompatible resources and understand the area's physical characteristics. Resource maps are included in Appendix A. Resources within the Study Area are described in Table 5.

After categorizing each of the resources described in Table 5 and applying the criteria included in Appendix B, suitable areas were identified as areas that are less likely to be negatively impacted by construction and/or operation of transmission lines and substations and features compatible adjacent land uses and a lack of sensitive resources. Suitable areas included land proximate to existing roads; existing land owned by Public Service Company of Colorado; areas of lesser sensitive species habitat value; undeveloped areas; and state, federal, and privately owned land with compatible uses. Sensitive areas were those where environmental impacts and/or land use conflicts may occur with the construction and/or operation of transmission lines and substations. Impacts in these areas can often be mitigated. Exclusion areas were locations with the highest level of sensitivity and the greatest potential environmental, social, and economic impacts; permitting requirements; or prohibition by state or federal regulations. While it is not possible to avoid all impacts, classification of resources in this manner helps maximize the utilization of compatible areas and minimize the impacts to exclusion areas. Resource maps depicting the location of the data that influenced these criteria are included in Appendix A. The suitable, sensitive and exclusion criteria are shown in Appendix B for transmission line routing. 3.2.3 Mobilization and Coordination Throughout the Routing and Siting Study process, the Pathway team repeatedly visited the Study Area to ground-truth map data and understand current land uses. During the ongoing review of the area, the team also met with Weld and Morgan county staff to introduce Pathway, discuss local resources and concerns to consider during routing, gather feedback and confirm expected permitting requirements. The Pathway team also met with agency representatives from Colorado Parks and Wildlife, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the State Land Board to discuss unique agency concerns to consider during the Routing and Siting Study process. Table 6 summarizes the key topics discussed during the county and agency meetings.

Areas that were more suitable and less suitable for transmission line routing were identified based on the mapped resource data and the routing criteria. These areas served as an indicator of routing complexity. The presence of more areas less suitable for routing could potentially result in an increase in transmission line miles when compared to the direct, straight-line distance between the segment endpoints. Table 7 provides the results of the Suitability Analysis and identifies key resources that influenced suitability within the Study Area. A map depicting the suitability of the Study Area is included as Figure 2. Table 7. Resources Impacting Suitability in Study Area Resources Present • 1-76, US 85,and US 6 • Pivot irrigation Segment 1 • Dense oil and gas wells • Centennial Valley SWA, Brush Prairie Ponds SWA, properties managed by The Nature Conservancy,and conservation easements • Solar arrays in western portion of Study Area • North of Study Area:South Platte River and US 34 No siting or analysis of alternative sites is anticipated for the expansion of the existing Fort St. Vrain Substation as it will be located on Public Service Company of Colorado's property. The land is currently zoned as heavy industrial; as such, the existing land use will not change. 3.3 Step 3: Preliminary Transmission Line Links Based on the Suitability Analysis and mapping, field reconnaissance, and routing objectives, possible transmission line links were identified throughout the Study Area. Link locations generally minimized crossing less suitable and exclusion areas and maximized the use of areas ranked as more suitable. Within the Study Area, 35 links were identified that when pieced together created complete route options (Figure 3). In total, these 35 links created 189 miles of route options throughout the Study Area. Given the 22 TETRA TECH Colorado's Power Pathway Routing and Siting Study Segment 1: Fort St.Vrain—Canal Crossing location of the substation end points, the transmission line must cross the South Platte River, US 85, 1-76, and several county roads. Crossing locations were identified based on the Suitability Analysis and mapping and field reconnaissance. Preference was given to crossing locations with an existing disturbance and areas where development is sparse on either side. Two options to exit the Fort St. Vrain Substation were identified at the southern end of the substation site. Link 101 exists the site and heads directly east, paralleling an existing 115kV transmission line across the South Platte River. Link 101 continues to follow the existing transmission line east across US 85 and a railroad, north of Platteville. Link 102 exits the substation site and heads south, crossing existing transmission lines then paralleling an existing 115kV transmission line for approximately 1 mile. Link 102 splits from the existing transmission line to parallel County Road 21, then turns east to follow an access road to the South Platte River, where Link 102 creates a new river crossing. Link 102 continues east to create a new US 85 and railroad crossing south of Platteville. Transmission links continue east, with northern, central, and southern options maneuvering around pivots and oil and gas infrastructure. These links feed into Links 113 and 119, which create a northern route, and Links 116 and 117, which create a southern route, through the more rural portion of the Study Area and across 1-76. Link 118 connects these two route options. Link 117 follows section lines at its new crossing of 1-76 and the railroad, approximately 3 miles northeast of Keenesburg. Link 119 bisects section lines at its new crossing of 1-76, approximately 5.5 miles northeast of Roggen. Link 119 creates a new crossing at the railroad approximately 6 miles east of its 1-76 crossing. These two route options converge southeast of Wiggins for approximately 11.5 miles before diverging again and creating northern, central, and southern options to enter the Canal Crossing Siting Area. 3.4 Step 4: Focus Areas Ongoing discussions with jurisdictions, feedback from the public during open houses, additional field review, and continued preliminary transmission line link evaluation resulted in areas and links with multiple constraints and areas less suitable for transmission line development being removed from further consideration. The location of the remaining links defined the location of the Focus Area, a smaller area within the segment Study Area and within which the preferred route is anticipated to be located. The Focus Area for Segment 1 is generally focused on the central portion of the Study Area, north of the populated areas of Keenesburg, Hudson, and Fort Lupton and south of Wiggins, Fort Morgan, and Log Lane Village. The central portion of the Study Area continued to prove favorable over the northern and southern areas as it provides a more direct route to the Canal Crossing Substation Siting Area and avoids several population centers. The Segment 1 Focus Area is shown in Figure 4. 3.4.1 Public Outreach — September 2021 Virtual Public Meetings Two virtual routing and siting public meetings were held on September 23, 2021, for stakeholders to learn about the progress made on Pathway, including the development of Focus Areas for identification of transmission line routes and substation sites. These meetings were held virtually due to restrictions on large gatherings due to COVID-19. A total of 63,982 postcards were sent to all mailing addresses within the segment Study Areas announcing the meeting dates, times, and connection information. Thirty-six newspaper ads, a social media post on Facebook, an e-newsletter, and the hotline, email, and website lb TETRA TECH 23 Routing and Siting Study Colorado's Power Pathway Segment 1: Fort St.Vrain—Canal Crossing also informed the interested public of the meetings. Attendance during the two meetings is shown in Table 8. Table 8: Routing and Siting Public Meeting Attendance Meeting Attendance September 23,noon 184 attendees September 23,6 pm 81 attendees A PowerPoint presentation provided information about need and benefits, routing and siting process updates, and upcoming in-person public open houses. A Q&A session was held after the presentation to answer questions. In total, 65 questions were asked and covered the following topics: • Health and safety • Project cost and funding • Landowner compensation and property values • Resource planning and renewables • Access to presentation and maps 3.4.2 Public Outreach — Fall 2021 Public Open Houses Fifteen public open houses were held in October and November 2021 to provide an update on identifying preliminary transmission line links and substation site options and to solicit feedback from stakeholders. The preliminary transmission line links and Focus Area that were shared with the public and agencies for comment are shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4, respectively. Two of these public open houses were held within the Segment 1 Study Area. In total, 4,462 direct mail postcards were sent to mailing addresses within the Focus Areas. Thirty-six newspaper ads, a social media post on Facebook, an e-newsletter, and hotline, website, and email updates announced the open houses to the interested public. Attendance at the open houses within Segment 1 is summarized in Table 9.

The matrix was used as a tool to compare the preliminary transmission line links, or series of links, to each other. This comparison was based on numerical results of criteria such as engineering factors,jurisdiction/land use factors, presence of homes and other buildings, natural resources and cultural resources. Preliminary transmission line links were also revised lb TETRA TECH 25 Routing and Siting Study Colorado's Power Pathway Segment 1: Fort St. Vrain—Canal Crossing (removed, added, or modified) based on continued link evaluations and public and key stakeholder review and input; record of the revisions is provided in Appendix C. Key decisions resulting from the comparative matrix analysis and public feedback are discussed in the following sections. Identifying the location of the preferred route for Segment 1 was accomplished through a process that included engaging the public, landowners and other stakeholders. Cultural and historic resources, technical and engineering requirements, environmental constraints, existing and planned land use and other factors that stakeholders have told Xcel Energy are important to consider are evaluated and compared for transmission line route options. These factors are further described in the following graphic. The preferred route selected balanced all these factors.

The size of the Focus Area and number of preliminary transmission line links resulted in numerous end-to-end link combinations. Instead of 26 it TETRA TECH Colorado's Power Pathway Routing and Siting Study Segment 1: Fort St.Vrain—Canal Crossing comparing all possible end-to-end combinations against each other, series of links that served the same purpose of moving through a particular region of the Focus Area were compared against each other. Looking at these series of links at a local level enabled a more granular analysis of impacts and links that not only minimized, but balanced impacts across resources were chosen as the preferred. Alternative options to some preferred transmission line links were also identified. Other additional links were eliminated from further consideration, and the Focus Area was revised to accommodate additional routing options to the Canal Crossing Siting Area. As preferred links were successively identified at a local level, the overall preferred route was pieced together. The preferred end-to-end route was then compared to the end-to-end alternative routes. The revised Focus Area and preliminary preferred and alternative routes are shown on Figure 5. 3.5.2 Public Outreach—Winter 2022 Public Open Houses Fifteen public open houses were held in January and February 2022 to share up-to-date preliminary transmission line links, Focus Areas and routing decisions with the public, and gather feedback. Two open houses were held within the Segment 1 Study Area. A total of 14,825 direct mail postcards were sent to all property owners within the Focus Areas. Thirty-six newspaper ads, 12 radio ads, a social media post on Facebook, an e-newsletter, and hotline, website, and email updates announced the open houses to the interested public. Attendance at the open houses within Segment 1 Study Area is summarized in Table 10.

The preferred route follows County Road 26 east and moves through the central portion of the Focus Area around oil and gas infrastructure and pivots, maximizing distance along existing linear corridors and minimizing numbers of landowners and parcels crossed. Existing access roads and section lines are utilized to travel east to 1-76 where the preferred route jogs north around the community of Roggen. The preferred route crosses 1-76 as it follows Link 119 and continues east to the Canal Crossing Siting Area, where it follows Links 125 and 126 to dip south. Distance from homes is maximized where possible. Additional statistics on the preferred and alternative route are provided in Table 11.

These resources will continue to serve as ways for the public and stakeholders to stay informed about progress and communicate with representatives. Information presented during the virtual and in person open houses is provided on the Pathway website for ongoing reference. No additional open houses are planned within Segment 1 at this time since the preferred transmission line route has been chosen. Any open houses and/or public hearings required by Segment 1 permitting entities will be conducted as Pathway progresses through the permitting phase. 4.2 Final Design, Permitting, Construction, and In Service 4.2.1 Final Design, Landowner Outreach and Micrositing Transmission poles vary in height depending on voltage (size of line), terrain, length of span between transmission poles, sag of the conductor, pole type, and minimum electrical clearance prescribed by the National Electric Safety Code. Anticipated design of the transmission poles constructed for Pathway is discussed in Section 1. Final design and location of the transmission poles is still ongoing and will be finalized prior to material order placement and construction. Final route refinement will occur at the local level as easements are secured with landowners and Pathway proceeds to the permitting phase. Landowner preferences,jurisdictional input, and locations of sensitive resources may influence the exact locations of the transmission poles, pole design, and the ultimate location of the transmission line and substations. 4.2.2 Permitting Federal, state, and local permits/approvals may be required prior to construction. Any necessary construction-related authorizations, which are typically administrative in nature, will be obtained between the time local land use permits are approved and when construction begins. State approvals may include, for example, permits for road, bridge, and highway crossings or road occupancy permits from the Colorado Department of Transportation; and stormwater discharge permits and Air Pollution Emissions Notice from the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment. Federal permits may be required for construction related impacts to wetland or waterbodies from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. 30 N TETRA TECH Colorado's Power Pathway Routing and Siting Study Segment 1: Fort St.Vrain—Canal Crossing Jurisdictional outreach was conducted with each county anticipated to be crossed by the transmission line route or where endpoint substations are located to solicit feedback and discuss potential land use permits that may be required for the transmission line and each substation. It is anticipated that land use permitting with jurisdictions crossed by the preferred transmission line route and substation sites will be triggered. These authorizations may include, for example, Special Use Permits, Conditional Use Permits, or House Bill 1041 Areas and Activities of State Interest Permits. The anticipated local land use permits for Segment 1 preferred transmission line route were identified based on a review of local land use code and early coordination with county representatives; these permits are listed in Table 12. Permits for temporary construction laydown and staging areas from local jurisdictions may also be required. All necessary land use and construction-related permits will be acquired from the appropriate county and municipal authorities. Table 12:Anticipated Segment 1 Land Use Permits County Data Source(s) Permit Weld Weld County(2022) Areas&Activities of State Interest(1041) Morgan Morgan County(2021) Areas&Activities of State Interest(1041) 4.2.3 Construction and In-service Construction of the Segment 1 transmission line and expansion activities at the Fort St. Vrain Substation are anticipated to begin in 2024 and have an estimated 2-year construction period through 2026. The estimated in-service date for these facilities is 2026. The estimated schedule for Pathway is displayed in the following graphic. There are many variables that factor into the construction schedule for projects of this magnitude. One key variable that may impact the construction schedule is the timing of approval for final siting and routing for each segment of transmission line and substation and acquiring all necessary land rights and permits. Other construction timing variables include engineering design or scope changes that may occur over the course of Pathway development and the timing of equipment procurement.
