Environmental Assessment for Proposed Transmission Line Easement at Edwards Air Force Base, California

Abstract

This environmental assessment (EA) evaluates the potential environmental impacts associated with the construction and operation of a proposed electrical transmission line on Edwards Air Force Base (AFB), California (Proposed Action). The transmission line would be used for electric transmission from the Aratina Solar Project to the Kramer Substation. The Aratina Solar Project is located on private lands immediately north of Edwards AFB. The analysis provided in this EA is intended to identify potential environmental impacts associated with the development of the proposed transmission line and facilitate decision-making on proposed alternatives. The analysis in this EA is tiered, where appropriate, from the Environmental Assessment for Proposed Utility Corridors Edwards Air Force Base, California (Air Force 2016) (Utility Corridor EA).
