The City of Banning proposes to construct the Sunset Substation and supporting 33 kV transmission line that would interconnect with the City's existing distribution system. The purpose of this new substation and transmission is to relieve the existing overloads that are occurring within the City's electric system and to accommodate projected growth in the City. Aspen serves as the Environmental Project Management Team for the CEQA documentation being prepared for the City's Utility Department. Currently, an Initial Study is being prepared to determine the type of CEQA document needed (i.e., Negative Declaration [ND], Mitigated Negative Declaration [MND], or Environmental Impact Report [EIR]).
