A large utility company undertook a significant substation expansion project in the US Southwest. This project involved installing a new 100MVAr shunt reactor, along with associated circuit breakers and switches, which increased the substation's footprint by 20%. The expansion met the requirements for a Letter of Notification (LON) from the state Power Siting Board (OPSB).
Commonwealth played a crucial role in this project by providing comprehensive engineering design and construction management services. They prepared the LON for submission to the OPSB, facilitated the Public Notice Process, conducted a wetland delineation, and prepared an Environmental Review as part of the LON application process. Additionally, Commonwealth developed a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) and secured the necessary County SWPPP Permit.
