Each screening criterion was developed into a separate data layer indicating whether the criterion was met. The layers were combined into a final data set that included only lands that met all the criteria for each technology. Maps of individual criteria are in Appendix A. The criteria listed above were used to identify areas with long-term development potential. A more restrictive definition of resource availability was used in identifying the NFS Units with the highest near-term development potential. These NFS Units should not be considered the only areas with significant development potential, however. Task 4. Documenting High-Potential Areas for Inclusion in a Solar and Wind Energy Action Plan This report is the product of this task. To develop recommendations for this report, USFS and NREL performed a comparative analysis. They used the solar and wind energy GIS maps resulting from Task 3 to conduct the analysis. 5. The Comparative Analysis The GIS maps constructed for Task 3 were used as a starting point to identify the NFS Units with sites having the highest potential for solar and wind energy development. NREL technology experts developed the following final technology-specific decision rules. Each rule was used as a last screening criterion to eliminate marginal and less desirable solar and wind energy sites from the final maps developed under Task 3. CSP Include all sites with a solar resource of 7 kWh/m2/day or greater and terrain slope less than or equal to 1%. PV Include all sites with a solar resource of 7 kWh/m2/day or more and terrain slope less than or equal to 1%. Wind Include all sites that are in Wind Class 4 or greater and are within the proximity of either a major load center (city) or a major transmission line connecting with a major load center. After the final decision rules were applied to technology-specific maps, the land area of the remaining solar andwindenergysiteswassummedonanadministrativeforestunitbasis.
