Welcome to the Mitigation Monitoring Compliance and Reporting Program page for the San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E) South Bay Substation Relocation Project located in the City of Chula Vista, California, in the southwesterly portion of San Diego County, California.
Pursuant to the California Public Utilities Commission’s (CPUC) approval of the Project, San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E) is required to implement the Applicant Proposed Measures (APMs) and mitigation measures identified in the Final Environmental Impact Report (EIR) and the Mitigation Monitoring, Reporting, and Compliance Program (MMRCP). The CPUC, as the lead agency, is responsible for ensuring that the APMs and mitigation measures, as well as plans reviewed and approved by other agencies, are implemented throughout the construction phase of the Project. Below are project documents related to mitigation monitoring that are available for public review.

The program’s goal is to ensure compliance with CPUC’s adopted mitigation. The CPUC, in conjunction with SDG&E, drafted a Mitigation Monitoring Compliance and Reporting Program (MMCRP) to ensure compliance with mitigation measures approved in the Final EIR. Click on link below to view a complete copy of the MMCRP.
MMCRP
A NTP is issued contingent upon SDG&E’s compliance with pre-construction requirements as specified by the approved mitigation measures and responsible agency permitting requirements. A link to the approved pre-compliance reports, permit applications, and other documents is provided below.
Pre-compliance reports, permit applications, and other documents
A CPUC Environmental Monitor (EM) is monitoring construction activities to ensure that they are conducted in accordance with the approved mitigation measures and permit conditions. Reports documenting construction status and compliance activities are provided below.

The Commission decision approving the permit to construct authorizes Energy Division staff to approve requests by SDG&E for minor project refinements. The decision states that the Energy Division may approve requests by San Diego Gas & Electric Company for minor project refinements that may be necessary due to final engineering of the South Bay Substation Relocation Project so long as such minor project refinements are located within the geographic boundary of the study area of the Environmental Impact Report and do not, without mitigation, result in a new significant impact or a substantial increase in the severity of a previously identified significant impact based on the criteria used in the environmental document; conflict with any mitigation measure or applicable law or policy; or trigger an additional permit requirement. San Diego Gas & Electric Company shall seek any other project refinements by a petition to modify this decision.
SDG&E's Minor Project Refinement Requests will be made available below when submitted to the CPUC.
