8. Conclusion

Based on the analysis of the Initial Study, the Draft and Final MNDs, and the mitigation measures identified therein and incorporated into the Proposed Project, the Commission finds that the Proposed Project will not have a significant impact on the environment. We have reviewed the Application and, after considering all of the above requirements, find it complete and in compliance with GO 131-D.

We conclude that granting this PTC is in the public interest and the Application should be approved. Our order today adopts the Final MND (which incorporates the Draft IS/MND), subject to the conditions therein, and authorizes work on the Proposed Project to begin. Before commencing construction of the Proposed Project, SCE must have in place all required permits, easements or other legal authority for the project site.
