Tehachapi Renewable Transmission Project (Segments 6 and 11)

Location: Southern California, Angeles National Forest

K2 Environmental LLC completed an extensive access analysis of Segments 6 and 11 on the Tehachapi Renewable Transmission Project on the Angeles National Forest. This analysis included looking at construction and environmental constraints related to access to each structure and ancillary area on the project within the Angeles National Forest boundary. Two teams drove and/or walked all access along the proposed alignment and collected data using GPS and standardized datasheets; data collected included type of road upgrade required (e.g. new, existing-grading required, etc.), associated vegetation clearing, sensitive resource locations and drainage locations. Maps and summary tables were produced, detailing the information gathered.
