On all Hollows Eve, the CPUC offered a treat to SDG&E: competing proposed decisions on thier proposed Sunrise Powerlink. The trick: the two proposed decisions either partly or fully oppose the project.
The first of the proposed decisions, authored by an administrative law judge, denies the application for the 150-mile Sunrise Powerlink altogether, saying the project could significantly raise electric rates and do extensive environmental damage if built, and “is not needed to meet California's current renewable (energy) requirements.”
The second proposed decision, written by Commissioner Grueneich, approves the project but denies SDG&E its preferred northern route. Grueneich argues that Powerlink is needed to meet state goals in reducing greenhouse gases, but the utility should use a southern route through San Diego County Anza-Borrego Desert State Park
The full commission is not expected to vote on the two proposed decisions until December 4 at the earliest. The commission will hear comments from interested parties and oral arguments at a public hearing in San Francisco
It is an important matter and it should be solved asap.
