All subsequent development projects and related activities are required to be consistent with the WWSP. The 201-acre WWSP site lies in unincorporated Amador County, immediately west of the Jackson city limits, and one mile south of the City of Sutter Creek. The Project Site is south of Highway 88 and approximately one mile west of the Highway 88 and Highway 49 intersection in the Martell Regional Service Center area of the County.
