Why not consider putting them on tops of buildings where there are large industrial warehouses already constructed. There are many expanses of buildings on the borders of cities and towns throughout the desert. There are also areas of land on the edges of towns that are already degraded. It seems that there must be someplace else to put these rather than 2 national preserve areas, MNP and JTNP. These areas were created to protect wildlife habitats and preserve the natural state and beauty of the land. Constructing large solar panels will require a great amount of land loss, new roads and could lead to the loss of important wildlife and plant species and overall degradation of the land. Not to mention the dust that will be created which in turn could lead to the melting of what snow does occur there and alteration of the hydrogeological cycle. Please consider some other alternatives! The question of where else to put these solar panels?
