Document Description
This proposed Project involves the construction, operation, and decommissioning of a 150-megawatt photovoltaic solar power-generating facility. The Project includes an approximately 1,323.84-acre solar site and an up to 45.45-acre gen-tie corridor in which a maximum of 6.7 acres will be disturbed.
The project will result in permanent impacts to 611.80 acres of low to moderate desert tortoise and Mojave ground squirrel habitat. The Project is expected to result in incidental take of desert tortoise and Mojave ground squirrel, which are designated as threatened 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.
