to the DOE or the designated entity. However, it was felt that having the developer, rather than
the County, directly enter into a lease would be more expedient at this stage. Furthermore, the
County would still have the ability to make changes or impose protective restrictions, as it must
still review and approve of the lease agreement between the landowner and the selected entity.
