Document Description
CALFIRE proposes to install a generator at the Porterville Air Attack Base to ensure continued operations during power outages. Installation will require excavation of a 9’ x 14’ x 6” pad, and approximately 60’ of trenching to a depth of 30” for connection to gas and electric lines. The location of the work is within the developed area of the airbase grounds, where soil disturbance has occurred in the past. Work is anticipated to take approximately 1-2 weeks to complete.
