The preliminary EIS and EIR will not be finalized until the Government selects the Qualified Lessee(s) and proceeds with negotiations. The Government may release studies, reports and analysis from these preliminary documents for situational awareness only. Notwithstanding the forgoing or anything herein to the contrary, Proposed Lessees shall rely solely and exclusively on their own independent investigation and due diligence in determining whether the Property is suitable for their proposed use.

Parts 1500 to 1508, regulations published by the Government at 32 C.F.R. Part 989 and applicable CEQA regulations published at Public Resources Code (P.R.C.) Division 13, Environmental Quality 21000-21189.57. The Qualified Lessee(s) must complete its environmental analysis and the Government must fully comply with NEPA prior to entering into and executing a Lease.
