PDS2018-MUP-18-014; LOG NO. PDS2018-ER-21-001

The Project includes a Major Use Permit (PDS2018-MUP-18-014).

The Torrey Wind Project is a wind energy generation project which would produce up to approximately 126 MW of renewable energy. The Project proposes the construction and operation of approximately 30 new wind turbines (rated up to 4.2 megawatts (MW) each), an underground electrical collection system, a Project collector substation, a new 500 kV substation/switchyard located adjacent to the Sunrise Powerlink, an operations and maintenance (O&M) building, a temporary staging area, a batch plant, meteorological towers, and various access roads. Project construction is anticipated to last approximately 9-12 months. Eventual decommissioning would occur at the end of the Project’s useful life. The Project site is located on approximately 2,041 acres consisting of 13 parcels in the southeastern portion of unincorporated San Diego County. The Project site is entirely on private land in the McCain Valley area, north of the community of Boulevard and Interstate 8 (I-8). Primary access to the Project site is and would be provided from I-8 with local access through Ribbonwood Road. The Project site is located within the Boulevard Subregional Community Plan Area.
