BLM updated the milestone change for the Borderlands Wind Project section 106 target date from Feb 21, 2020 to a target date of April 6, 2020. It appears that the target date change was not made during the migration phase of the dashboard earlier this year. For the April milestone date, there was a face-to-face consultation scheduled on March 16, 2020 that could not occur due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The consultation is being rescheduled for completing the 106 process (signing the PA) by June 15, 2020.
