Document Description
Relocate one of the two existing La Paloma/Sunrise 230kV circuits, add a new bay, switches, and relay; add four new transmission lowers, reroute a segment of an existing roadway, and construct a perimeter fence under the new transmission line. All modifications will occur within the existing boundaries of the substation, and are necessary to minimize the potential for a transmission system overload during outages or maintenance activities at the substation due to the additional load from the Sunrise Power Company's combined-cycle expansion project.
