Guest View: Support big solar projects
In response to Bill Corcoran, western director for the Sierra Club’s Beyond Coal Campaign, Guest View: “Panoche Valley is wrong for solar project” I would offer the following: Mr. Corcoran neglected to inform readers that Save Panoche Valley, the Santa Clara Valley Audubon Society and the Sierra Club (collectively Save Panoche Valley) lost a legal appeal from a trial court’s order denying their petition for writ of mandate opposing the PV2 Energy Solar Project. Save Panoche Valley challenged San Benito County’s certification of an environmental impact report (EIR) regarding the proposed solar power development to which the Appellate Court disagreed.
