Solar WWTP

Document Description: The proposed project consists of construction and operation of a 1 megawatt photovoltaic tracking system to provide a sustainable energy resource for the existing WWTP. The project consists of single-axis trackers, grid-interactive inverters on concrete slabs and panel washing equipment. A total of 3,780 tiltable photovoltaic panels will be installed. The solar arrays will be enclosed by a 6-foot high chain link fence. The project system footprint is 574 feet by 499 feet or 286,041 sf (6.57 acres). The proposed will utilize the existing dirt road that is located just east of the project site for vehicular access to the facility. There will be a 6-foot high chain link fence around the entire perimeter of the arrays with a vehicle gate and a personnel gate.
