Borrego Springs - Regional Decarbonization Framework
Reminiscent of the Sunrise Powerlink battle as some of you might remember, Borrego Springs has been designated a low-cost option for industrial-size solar farms. Of course with this comes miles and miles of transmission lines to pipe the power to the populated areas. A petition is circulating to delay the San Diego County Board of Supervisors' vote on the Regional Decarbonization Plan until independent consultants update the Technical Report.

The situation in Borrego Springs echoes the Sunrise Powerlink debate, with the area being eyed for large-scale solar farms. This development brings extensive transmission lines to connect with populated regions. A petition is now circulating to delay the San Diego County Board of Supervisors' vote on the Regional Decarbonization Plan. The request is for independent consultants to update the Technical Report to ensure accurate and thorough planning.

So do SD citizens actually have a chance in this or is it a done deal and just hopeful theater?

Having "participated" in something like this in the past, it felt like the overall outcome was predetermined. Our only realistic hope was to get small concessions rather than any substantive changes.
