the preparation of the EIR. At the time, it was recognized that
pending studies, unresolved project details, or unanticipated
volumes of review comments could warrant contract revisions.
Subsequently, the applicant did change details of the project in
July and August, and provided study information to the consultant
in that period later than originally scheduled. As a result, a
second administrative draft ( staff review document) of the EIR
had, to be prepared, and the Draft EIR (public comment document)
had. to be readied for publication .under expedited circumstances.
