[Mark Hamin]

This may be a helpful general resource for starters:

More indirectly related, RI DEM has good guidance resources (including from MA):

All best wishes and kind regards, Mark

Hello Planners,

Looking for examples for MOA/MOU/Leases etc. for solar facilities on capped/retired landfills, as well as any permits with project conditions. If anyone is willing and able to send those over or point me to linked docs, it would be greatly appreciated!



Best,

Michael
