Regional committee recommends letters for telecom and solar filings; board approves recommendations by voice vote
Summary
The regional committee reviewed Section 248 (Certificate of Public Good) notices including a telecom/generator application in Proctor (269 Crestway Drive), a 4.975 MW solar array filing in Fairhaven, and telecom modifications in Brandon and Killington; the board approved the committee’s recommended letters and determinations by voice vote.
Sarah, reporting for the RPC regional committee, reviewed several advance notices and recommended actions to the full board. The committee asked RPC staff to request additional information on fuel containment for an emergency generator tied to a telecom application at 269 Crestway Drive (Proctor/Rutland Town). For a 4.975-megawatt solar array filing in Fairhaven, the committee took no action at this stage; the committee recommended 'no significant regional impact' and conformance with the regional plan for telecom equipment modifications in Brandon (856 Franklin Street) and a Killington site (4563 Killington Road).
The board moved, seconded and approved the regional committee’s recommendations by voice vote. Sarah noted the committee is also tracking several forthcoming Act 250-related applications (a proposed camp development on Lake Sunrise in Benson/Orwell, an incomplete distillery application in Killington, and a potential Subaru dealership permit near Wallingford) and will place those items on future agendas for review.
