Dear Interested Party: Kern County has prepared a Draft Environmental Impact Report (Draft EIR) for a general plan amendment, zone change, conditional use permit, modification to conditional use permit, and cancellation of land use contract to allow for the construction and operation of a photovoltaic (PV) solar power-generating facility that would produce 350 megawatts (MW) of electricity on approximately 1,350 acres in unincorporated eastern Kern County. The project is located on two geographically separate sites. One site is located on the west side of Neuralia Road, approximately 1.5 miles south of the town of Cantil. The other site is located on the southeast side of State Route 14, west of Neuralia Road, directly west of the town of Cantil and approximately one half miles west of the rural community of Rancho Seco. The Kern County Planning and Community Development Department, as Lead Agency, has determined that preparation of an Environmental Impact Report would be appropriate for the referenced project. Enclosed is a copy of the Draft EIR. If we have not received a reply from you by March 27, 2015, at 5:00 P.M., we will assume that you have no comments regarding this Draft EIR. Sincerely,

Paul Sorenson Planner III Advanced Planning Division

The two adjoining parcels are bound on the west by Neuralia Road and the former Honda Proving Grounds test track facility is adjacent to the north. The boundary of the unincorporated town of Cantil is approximately 1.5 miles north of the site. The project site is located within Sections 3, and 11, Township 31 South, Range 37 East, M.D.B.M. The “Sons Ranch Site 1” and “Sons Ranch Site 2” sites consist of approximately 288 acres on 2 contiguous parcels, and on approximately 400 acres on 8 contiguous parcels, respectfully, and are located on the southeast side of State Route 14, west of Neuralia Road and north of the “Homes Ranch” site, directly west of the town of Cantil and approximately one half mile west of the rural community of Rancho Seco. The Jawbone Canyon OHV open use area is to the north of the “Sons” sites, and the former Honda test track facility is to the east. The project sites are located within Sections 27, 28, 33, and 34, Township 30 South, Range 37 East, M.D.B.M. The Springbok I site abuts the Homes Ranch site to the east, and consists of approximately 950 acres on two contiguous parcels. The former Honda Proving Grounds test track facility is adjacent to the north, and the boundary of the unincorporated town of Cantil is approximately 1.5 miles northwest of the site. The project site is located within Section 12, Township 31 South, Range 37 East, and within Section 7, Township 31 South, Range 38 East, M.D.B.M. Project Description: The proposed project would involve construction and operation of a photovoltaic (PV) power-generating facility that would produce 350 megawatts (MW) of electricity on approximately 1,350 acres in unincorporated eastern Kern County on two separate sites identified as the Homes Ranch and the Sons Ranch. The requested applications would also permit the construction of solar ancillary facilities and supporting infrastructure. The solar facility would include an estimated 1.5 million individual PV solar modules,

transmission lines and towers, interior collection and supply power lines, up to three substations, up to three above-ground water tanks, and up to three O&M buildings. The power produced by the proposed project would be conveyed to the power grid via one or more 230 kV or 345 kV generation-tie (gen-tie) lines. The gen-tie lines will be located within designated public right-of-ways and/or private easement areas, and will connect to the LADWP Beacon Substation located on the Beacon Photovoltaic Project site. Alternative or additional interconnection points include the LADWP Barren Ridge Substation located west of SR 14, the AV Clearview Transmission Yeager Substation located at Rosamond Boulevard and SR 58, the SCE Windhub Substation located on Oak Creek Road, west of SR 14 and south of SR 58, the SCE Randsburg Substation located southeast of Randsburg on Butte Avenue, and/or the SCE Kramer Substation located at the southwest intersection of Highway 395 and SR 58. Power may first be collected at an offsite shared substation located on a nearby solar project’s site. In addition the project includes modification of the existing and previously approved Springbok I Conditional Use Permit. Requested revision include a change in the location of the operation and maintenance facility and reflect requested amendments to the circulation element of the Kern County General Plan to eliminate road reservations internal to the project site. The project proposes the following applications: (a) Amendments to the Circulation Element of the Kern County General Plan to eliminate road reservations along section and midsection lines; (b) Amendment to the Cantil Rural Community Plan for the removal of portions of the project site from the Community Plans boundaries; (c) change in zone classification from the existing zone district A-1 (Limited Agriculture) to the A (Exclusive Agriculture) District on approximately 155 acres; (d) conditional use permits to allow for the construction and operation of a solar electrical generating facility and temporary concrete batch plants in the A (Exclusive Agriculture) zone; (e) Modifications to previously approved Conditional Use Permits to allow for Operations and Maintenance facilities to be relocated; and (f) Cancellation of approximately 540 acres of land under Williamson Act Land Use Contracts.

The requested applications would also permit the construction of solar ancillary facilities and supporting infrastructure. The solar facility would include an estimated 1.5 million individual PV solar modules, transmission lines and towers, interior collection and supply power lines, up to three substations, up to three above-ground water tanks, and up to three O&M buildings. The power produced by the proposed project would be conveyed to the power grid via one or more 230 kV or 345 kV generation-tie (gen-tie) lines. The gen-tie lines will be located within designated public right-of-ways and/or private easement areas, and will connect to the LADWP Beacon Substation located on the Beacon Photovoltaic Project site. Alternative or additional interconnection points include the LADWP Barren Ridge Substation located west of SR 14, the A V Clearview Transmission Yeager Substation located at Rosamond Boulevard and

SR 58, the SCE Windhub Substation located on Oak Creek Road, west ofSR 14 and south ofSR 58, the SCE Randsburg Substation located southeast of Randsburg on Butte Avenue, and/or the SCE Kramer Substation located at the southwest intersection of Highway 395 and SR 58.
