Will the forested area be removed for solar infrastructure?

About 8 acres of the site will be cleared of trees. The forest on the site has been logged several times, and many trees are still young or moderate in size. There is also a mix of fallen trees from wind damage and signs of tree root disease in some areas. The tree density is high, and the underbrush is thick which provides habitat function but also increases risk of wildfire. This is a common forest type for the islands. There are no rare plant species in the area. The remaining area will be wetland protection and wetland setback protection areas, based on the wetland delineation report. We will install code compliant landscaping barriers to make the view from the road aesthetically pleasing.
