Status context. The current CEC project page labels the exact RB Inyokern Small Power Plant Exemption project Under Review. Its October 20 staff data request continues review of the proposed backup generating project. Agency listed proposal is limited to the pending project and does not establish construction, operation or an approved exemption. CEC expressly distinguishes an exemption from later local and air approvals. The separate public comment is an attributed resident request, not a CEC impact finding.
Exact site not published; shown at county level. The dot is placed inside the county for the map and is not the site, its address or a parcel.
