Data quality note: Sourced from the Rhode Island Energy Facility Siting Board (EFSB)'s public docket list and each docket's own filed-document list, not the Public Utilities Commission (PUC) — EFSB, a separate three-member board only administratively housed at PUC's office, is the body that actually issues Rhode Island's license for a "major energy facility" (generation ≥40 MW, transmission ≥69 kV, LNG/LPG storage-conversion, and related facility types) under R.I. Gen. Laws § 42-98; PUC's own docket types (rate cases, tariffs, renewable-program compliance, etc.) carry no siting authority. See the ingestion module header for the full statutory citation. EFSB's own docket-list "Status" column is not reliably kept current — confirmed live against two real dockets whose most recent filed order is a genuine final grant, yet the column still read "Open" (one over a month stale, one over a year stale as of this writing). "Still waiting" here is instead determined by scanning each docket's own order/decision documents (excluding known-procedural order types) for real grant/deny/withdrawal language, including inside the order's own PDF text where necessary. See the ingestion module header for the two real stale-status examples and how this was calibrated. Located in the Towns/Cities of Woonsocket; Burrillville; North Smithfield, Rhode Island, per the docket's own caption text — Rhode Island's counties have no functioning county government, so town/city (not county) is the real local unit here, stored in this site's `county` field for consistency with other sources; no structured coordinates are published, so this project will not appear on the map until geocoded another way. applicationFiledDate is approximated as the earliest dated document found in this docket's own filing history, not a dedicated "application filed" field.
