Summary
The Bethany Inland Wetlands Commission reviewed Triek America's LLC proposal for a ground-mounted solar array at 795 Carrington Road. Following a joint site visit and concerns raised by regional water authorities and a watershed coalition, the commission pressed the developer for additional erosion-control documentation, wildlife safeguards, a stormwater permit, soil reports, and an operations plan before its July meeting. Chair Chris Sullivan noted the property partially lies within the commission's 150-foot upland review area.
