## Interpretation limits

- PG&E ICA is illustrative planning data, not an interconnection guarantee.
- Static ICA is reported but is not a hard gate for storage-oriented ranking.
- Residential customers and peak load describe an entire feeder, not a town.
- Reference battery sizing is illustrative; no hourly dispatch is simulated.
- The nearest mapped line may not be the feasible point of interconnection.
- NASA POWER is too coarse to resolve local coastal fog and shading.
- Wetlands are screened with a planning buffer; project-specific buffers vary.
- CPAD and prime-farmland overlays are conservative screening exclusions.
- Assessed improvement value is a proxy; aerial review must confirm open land.
- Coastal Zone and parcel boundaries are representational, not survey boundaries.
- Zoning fields are reported but not scored as a legal entitlement judgment.
