The Squaw Gulch substation and distribution system (as permitted) are behind the construction schedule. This additional 1500' line was not included in MLE-2, but is now needed to maintain our construction schedule. After construction of the originally permitted line this one will provide an alternate emergency power source. The new line starts at P1 which is a pole on the existing Mill circuit on the edge of Phase 4 VLF (see attached map). The poles contour down Guyot Hill, past the Chickenhawk, onto the old railroad grade and down to the site of the Security building for ADR2. The rest of the poles and line would be on the pad side of the toe berm over to the ADR2 building. The land is owned CC&V on the north side of State Highway 67. The earthworks will utilize existing roads with some minor pioneering for pole pads. A narrow corridor of trees would need to be removed toward the bottom.
