[brief] During the August 17, 2016 hearing on the Company’s application, a member of the Zoning Board asked [...] whether the Company had considered the site at [...] for the installation of the Regulator Station (Zoning Board Transcript 8/17/16, pg. 70, lines 18-25; pg. 71, lines 1-25; pg.  Accordingly, after the Zoning Board denied [...]’s application for the Original Proposed Site, the Company evaluated the site at [...].  26.  Based on that evaluation, the Company determined that the site at [...] was suitable for the installation of the Regulator Station.  Because the Proposed site is on the lot next to the Original Proposed Site at [...], it shares many of the same characteristics that make it suitable for the Facility.  It is of sufficient size and allows [...] to locate the Facility adjacent to the transmission line.  Significantly, the site is located at the southern end of [...]’s Holmdel transmission line, which will minimize the risk of customer exposure to outages.  Moreover, the zoning for the site is non-residential and conditionally permits public utilities.  There are no environmental constraints that would impact the development of a regulator station at this site.  The site is not encumbered with Green Acres restrictions.  There are no prohibitively low elevations in the easement area, and thus no flooding concerns, and [...] is not required to clear a significant number of trees.  Furthermore, the Proposed Site slopes down by approximately 12 feet from the Holmdel Road right of way to the Facility, which affords an existing visual barrier even ignoring the extensive landscaping proposal presented by [...], which includes two “L”-shaped 20’ wide berms and Landscape Easements directly around the facility enclosure, as well as an 18’ x 95’ tree line easement for a pre-emptive stand of evergreens to be planted approximately 60’ from the Holmdel Road right of way.  In addition, [...] has successfully obtained easements from the relevant parties to use the Proposed Site for a Regulator Station.  Finally, the Facility would be located approximately 180 feet west of the Holmdel Road right-of-way, which is a greater distance from the road than the Original Proposed Site (in which the Facility was proposed to be approximately 20 feet west of the Holmdel Road right-of-way), and approximately 260 feet west of the closest residential property line across Holmdel Road, which is a greater distance from the closest residential property line than the Original Proposed Site (in which the Facility was proposed to be approximately 100 feet west of the closest residential property line).  While [...] considers the distance of the Original Proposed Site from the roadway to be more than adequate, the location of the Proposed Site was moved farther back due to concerns raised by the public and the Zoning Board.  27.  In sum, based on the Site Analysis (as summarized above and detailed in the testimony of [...] (Exhibit P-2)), the location best suited for the Facility is the Proposed Site.  That location results in the least combined impacts to residential areas and the environment, while offering a feasible, and indeed preferable, engineering design.
