The first slide shows the location of the solar plant, which is in the back of Valdosta's Mud Creek Water Treatment Plant on Water Plant Road off of GA 94 (New Statenville Highway).
Where there used to be just a bare field, it's now covered with solar panels.
The current holdup is waiting for Georgia Power to connect the panels to the grid. After that, they just need to schedule a commissioning ceremony. Col. Ricketts said they'd discuss that "later".
Here's the video:
