Business Section SOLAR POWER PLANT 45 megawatt photovoltaic solar power plant in the Cuyama Valley 250 megawatt photovoltaic solar power plant in Carrizo Plain submitted by: Marty Eifrid 7/3/2009 Plans have been started to give this landmark sign some attention. Even though the Chamber of Commerce in the Cuyama Valley has been inactive for some time, there is renewed interest in reviving the Chamber. As long as commerce has existed, traders have banded together for the common protection against enemies, to govern the conduct of trade, and later to exert influence on legislation. The Chamber of Commerce is organized to focus attention and initiate private sector action on the major issues affecting the economic well-being and quality of life in the area. As it is a private, non-profit association supported largely by its members, membership investments and contributions provide the resources for Chamber programs. The Chamber receives no direct government funding. Those interested in joining the Cuyama Valley Chamber of Commerce, please e-mail CVchamber@eifrid.com with your contact information.
