I'm surprised that more isn't being made of this by those who are supporting Bundy. It's clear that the BLM wants the Bundy land to offset land given away for solar projects.

The feds often violate endangered species habitats by "offsetting" other land to make up for the violation. This makes it OK in the twisted minds of liberal bureaucrats. The "offset" land must remain forever pristine, so the easiest way to get it is to eliminate all other uses for it. In this case, the solar lands destroy turtle habitat, so to make up for it, they are demanding that Bundy remove his cattle from the offsetting lands to provide unmolested turtle habitat. So, everyone wins, the turtles get dry land (that they no longer can survive without moisture provided by cattle dung), the Chinese get their solar technology to steal from the US, and the Reids get their millions. But for the minor detail of stealing land homesteaded by the Bundys a century and a half ago, all is well in Nevada.

For the record..... is it on BLM land or Paiute Reservation land.?

There is a large reservation Paiute down in southern Nevada. Solar farms might be the next Indian Casino bubble. There are tons of vacant reservation land in Utah, Nevada and especially Arizona.
