DECISION GRANTING APPROVAL UNDER PUBLIC UTILITIES CODE SECTION 851 FOR CONVEYANCE OF A LEASE BY SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON COMPANY TO FLYING M RANCH, LLC
1. Summary
This decision grants the unopposed application1 of Southern California Edison Company (SCE) for California Public Utilities Commission (Commission) authorization under Section 8512 for SCE to convey a lease of 13.45 acres of its property located on a portion of SCE's Hinson Lighthipe Transmission right of way in Long Beach, California to Flying M Ranch, LLC (Flying M). This agreement will permit the Flying M to use the site for a trailer-parking facility. If the Flying M wishes to utilize the site for other purposes, SCE must file a new application for approval under Section 851, obtain any additional required local permits, and undergo any additional required environmental review.
In addition, as the Lead Agency under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), we find that the Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) and the mitigation monitoring plan prepared by the Commission for this project meets the requirements of CEQA. We therefore approve and adopt the MND and mitigation monitoring plan.
