PA-2500218 (C)

Project PA-2500218 (C) is a Conditional Use Permit application for the development of a 14.5-acre ground-mounted photovoltaic energy facility located at 18133 E Comstock Road in Linden, San Joaquin County, California. The facility is designed to generate up to 3 megawatts of solar energy using photovoltaic modules, inverters, and single-axis tracker technology to maximize collection efficiency. The system will be anchored by driven piers with a maximum height of 15 feet and will interconnect with the Pacific Gas and Electric electrical distribution system along East Comstock Road. The project is subject to a Mitigated Negative Declaration, indicating that proposed mitigation measures reduce potential environmental effects to less than significant levels. Compliance requirements include adherence to the San Joaquin County Multi-Species Habitat Conservation and Open Space Plan, the California Building Code for seismic safety, and the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology guidelines. Final structural design and construction must be approved and inspected by the City Building Inspector and a California-registered professional geotechnical engineer to ensure all seismic and site-specific engineering standards are met.
