Properties of the Diablo Canyon Lands

North Ranch (outlined in orange, in the map above) is the most northern section of the Diablo Canyon Lands and is about 4600 acres.  It is located directly south of Montana de Oro State Park and north of Parcel P, where the Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant and support structures are located. 

The property is  owned by PG&E and current, managed public access is permitted (only) via the Point Buchon Trail, which was created as a condition for PG&E to obtain a Coastal Development Permit to construct a dry-cask storage facility for spent nuclear fuel generated by the plant.

South Ranch (in pink, in the map above) is the largest section of the Diablo Canyon Lands and is about 5000 acres.  It is located directly south of Parcel P, where the power plant and support structures are located. 

The property is owned by Eureka Energy and managed public access is permitted in the southern section (only), via the Pecho Coast Trail, which was created as a condition for PG&E to obtain a Coastal Development Permit to construct a training facility.

1200 acres of South Ranch at Point San Luis have been deed restricted to prevent future development there, as a condition for PG&E to obtain a Coastal Development Permit to replace its steam generator.
