CUP No. 14-05 for the Hattensen Solar Facility Project

Document Description: The proposed project includes the construction of the Hattensen Solar Generation Facility on 16.69 acres. The project would consist of the following components: (1) PV modules; 2) mounting structures; 3) inverters and transformers; 4) electrical collection and distribution system; 5) on site switchgear; and 6) perimeter fencing and access driveways. The project would generate clean renewable energy from solar power, which would then be sold to a public utility company and distributed through the local power lines for public consumption. During construction, site grading would be minimal, approx 450 sf, with limited impact to existing topography and vegetation coverage. Construction would take approx 3 months.
