Metcalf Energy Center
The Metcalf Energy Center was one of the most contested cases in the history of the California Energy Commission. This brief highlights the most heavily litigated issues in this high-profile case: biology, air quality, public health, visual resources, transmission system impacts, project alternatives, and the Commission's override of local ordinances.
In the compliance phase of this project, Metcalf's letter served as notice that the filing was being made under protest with full reservation of rights and provided notice of intent to seek redress through all appropriate avenues, without waiving, or in any way compromising any rights and duties under existing law and regulation.
