Document Description
The overall Project will consist of construction of a 150 Megawatt (MW) photovoltaic solar energy facility and a transmission interconnection line (T-line) on approximately 1,145.87 acre. The portion of the Project being constructed within the next 90 days will be restricted to construction activities in Blocks 1 through 3, T-line construction activities in Blocks 4 and 5, and Operation and Maintenance activities within the T-Line corridor and overhead collection system path. This will result in impacts to 644.99 acres of flat-tailed horned lizard (Phrynosoma mcallii) habitat. The project is expected to result in incidental take of flat-tailed horned lizard, which is designated as a candidate species under the California Endangered Species Act (CESA). The ITP referenced above as issued by CDFW authorizes incidental take of species listed under CESA that may occur as a result of Project implementation.
