Daniels: Hansen Has Submitted EIS Info

So about an hour ago, KING 5's Chris Daniels casually addressed Jon Humbert's earlier report concerning the Seattle Arena's EIS. It started with Daniels responding to twitter user jkeogh78 asking about KOMO's report.

@jkeogh78 Not what I'm hearing...

Oooh, an ellipses. Daniels, you coy bastard, what are you hiding? He continued:

That #SeattleArena EIS date has since been moved & after talking to everyone involved still looks to be on track for mid-to-late January.

— Chris Daniels (@ChrisDaniels5) September 30, 2014

Hmm. Okay. Not the February that Humbert was reporting, but not much earlier, either. Interesting? Maybe a little.

But keep in mind - there is some EIS guesswork involved from city's perspective, in terms of how much time it will take to collate material.

So you're saying the four months is an estimate? Well, that is interesting.

One more #SeattleArena note...

— Chris Daniels (@ChrisDaniels5) September 30, 2014

Okay, Chris. We're listening.

The Seattle DPD has confirmed that Chris Hansen HAS SUBMITTED all the needed information for the #SeattleArena EIS....

— Chris Daniels (@ChrisDaniels5) September 30, 2014

WHOA! So apparently KOMO was given false information. Tell us more, Chris!

...the department is now reviewing and collating the material for presentation to the Seattle City Council in January. #SeattleArena

Okay, guys. We've got real news. We've got a real date to look forward to. Chris has done his part, and now we wait again. At least now, we know what we're waiting for. There is an end in sight. Go Sonics.

UPDATE 4:43 PM: Here is Daniels' write-up on the story
