The Cleveland National Forest is proposing a new master special use permit and easement authorization for Southern California Edison Company to use and occupy NFS land for electric system facilities and infrastructure. The authorization is proposed for existing facilities within the perimeter as shown on Exhibit A maps. Authorizations will be consolidated into one master permit and easement with an attached operation and maintenance plan to standardize procedures, resource protection measures, and best management practices for all activities. This action does not authorize any changes to facilities, alignments, or the capacity of the electric grid. Facilities considered in this analysis have been previously authorized with various special use permits, easements, or statutory rights, and are eligible for continuance.
