A Klickitat County Commissioner said she feels encouraged by the process the Washington Energy Facilities Site Evaluation Council uses to evaluate solar projects after following other applications.  Cypress Creek Renewables, the North Carolina firm looking to build the proposed Carriger Solar Project west of Goldendale, filed a permitting application through the state.  County Commissioner Lori Zoller said while the County would like to have had an application come to them, there is a place for their voice to be heard at the state level.  Zoller noted the state does take a deep dive into land use planning and environmental issues when considering these types of applications.
