The purpose of the Project is to ensure reliability of the California Independent System Operator Corporation (CAISO) controlled grid The need for the Project was determined as part of the CAISO Transmission Planning Process. The application includes the Proponent’s Environmental Assessment (PEA) prepared pursuant to Rule 2.4 of the CPUC's Rules of Practice and Procedure. The Proposed Project work would take place upon lands owned by LSPGC or within PG&E easements. The Proposed Project would include interconnection to PG&E’s electrical transmission system via Round Mountain – Table Mountain #1 and #2 500 kV transmission lines, and upgrades to the existing PG&E Round Mountain and Table Mountain substations. The Proposed Project see Location Map) would be located in east of Fern Road and east of the existing PG&E transmission right-of-way (ROW), approximately 1.6 miles northwest of the unincorporated community of Whitmore and approximately 9.3 miles north of State Highway 44 in unincorporated southern Shasta County. The STATCOM units would be located within the new Fern Road Substation and would be independently connected (e.g., looped-in) to Pacific Gas and Electric Company’s (PG&E) regional electric transmission system via the Round Mountain – Table Mountain #1 and #2 500 kV transmission lines that are located adjacent to the Proposed Project site. LSPGC, in its CPUC application (A.22-04-004), filed on April 6, 2022, requests a permit to construct a Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) Substation (the Fern Road Substation), which would include an approximately +/-529 million volt-amperes, reactive (MVAR) dynamic reactive support facility to include a minimum of two equally sized STATCOM units. This site provides access to public documents and information relevant to the CEQA review process. An application for this project was submitted to the CPUC on Ap(Application A.22-04-004).
