On Thursday, the California Coastal Commission extended the permit to two years instead of five years.

A wind-driven wildfire in Tracy, California, burned 11,000 acres and forced many residents to evacuate on Saturday.
The Corral Fire was first reported around 2:30 p.m. east of Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory’s Site 300. It reached nearly 11,050 acres, with 13% containment, at 11:30 p.m., California Fire said on its website.
Residents east of Highway 580 between Corral Hollow Road and South Tracy Boulevard were the first to be instructed to leave by the San Joaquin County Office of Emergency Services, according to KTVU and CBS News.
The evacuations were then expanded to people living west of the California Aqueduct, west to Alameda County and south to Stanislaus County, the county office said on social media.

Winds in the hills west of Tracy were estimated at 20 to 25 mph, with gusting to 43 mph, according to the National Weather Service.
The cause of the fire is unclear.
SAN FRANCISCO — California firefighters aided by aircraft battled a wind-driven wildfire burning Saturday in an area straddling the San Francisco Bay Area and central California, authorities said.
Gusty winds have fueled the Corral Fire burning near the city of Tracy, 60 miles (96 kilometers) east of San Francisco, and the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in the city of Livermore, according to the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, or Cal Fire.
The blaze grew to 7 square miles (18 square kilometers) within hours, sending dark plumes of smoke high into the sky. It was 40% contained, Cal Fire said.
Interstate 580, which connects the San Francisco Bay Area to San Joaquin County in central California, was closed in both directions from Corral Hollow Road to Interstate 5 due to the lack of visibility from the smoke, the California Department of Transportation said in a statement.
The San Joaquin County Office of Emergency Services issued an evacuation order, pinpointing the wildfire in an area east of Interstate 580. Residents between Corral Hollow Road and Tracy Boulevard were ordered to leave their homes, with residents south of Tracy Boulevard told to be prepared for evacuation.
