Welcome to the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) website for the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) review of Pacific Gas and Electric Company’s (PG&E’s) proposed Fulton-Fitch Mountain Reconductoring Project (project). PG&E submitted an application to the CPUC for a Permit to Construct (PTC) for the project on December 3, 2015. This site provides access to public documents and information relevant to the CEQA environmental review process. QUICK LINKSProponent's
Environmental
Assessment Public Meetings, Questions, and Comments BackgroundPG&E proposes to reinforce the electric transmission system in central Sonoma County by replacing the conductor on a 9.9-mile-long section of the Fulton-Hopland 60 kV Power Line (Fulton-Hopland line) between the Fulton Substation and Fitch Mountain Substation. The project would include replacing poles along 8.1 miles of the Fulton-Hopland line, replacing conductor on 1.3 miles of the Geysers #12-Fulton 230 kV Transmission Line (Geysers #12-Fulton line), and making modifications to Fitch Mountain Substation.The proposed project is subject to CEQA review because the CPUC has been presented with a discretionary action to approve or deny PG&E’s PTC application. Before making a decision about PG&E’s application, the CPUC is required to analyze potential environmental impacts associated with the project and present the findings in an environmental document for public review and comment. This website provides access to public documents and information relevant to the CEQA review process. Project OverviewThe 9.9-mile-long project alignment is comprised of the Southern Segment (1.8 miles), Northern Segment (8.1 miles), and Fitch Mountain Substation. Proposed project components at each location are summarized as follows:
