Document Description
Modification to existing CUPs for repowering (replacement of towers and turbines) of existing wind farms and associated power operation and maintenance activities within the Alameda County portion of the Altamont Pass Wind Resource Area. The modified CUPs will be consistent with a concurrent program for a Habitat Conservation Plan/Natural Community Conservation Plan (HCP/NCCP). Updates to the CUPs may include components unrelated to the HCP/NCCP that may have environmental impacts. Two individual repowering projects will also be included as part of the program, the 95 MW Summit Wind project proposed by Altamont Winds, Inc., and the 135.7 MW project proposed by NextEra Energry Resources, LLC.
