October 1, 2015 (San Diego)—San Diego Supervisors will hold a hearing on Soitec Solar’s final remaining project in Boulevard on October 14th.  Supervisors will consider a Revised Final Program Environmental Impact Report for the project that can be viewed here: http://www.sandiegocounty.gov/content/sdc/pds/ceqa/Soitec-Solar-RFPEIR.html.   The hearing documents will be posted at http://www.sandiegocounty.gov/content/sdc/cob/bosa.html in advance of the hearing.

A court threw out the original environmental report  because massive battery storage units were added after public comment was closed. The developer wants the county to approve a revised environmental document with the battery units removed.  The project has drawn strong community and environmental opposition and legal action by opponents.
