PWP DEVELOPS WILDFIRE MITIGATION PLAN
|
PWP recently developed a Wildfire Mitigation Plan (Plan) in compliance with the requirements set by the California Public Utilities Code Section 8387. The Plan was approved by the City Council on November 18, 2019 and includes various programs, policies, and specific efforts designed to mitigate the threat of power-line ignited wildfires.
Trees around power lines are trimmed to maintain safe clearance to prevent them from growing into or falling on the power lines, which could cause a power outage and possibly spark a fire or break the power line, creating danger to the public. Tree-trimming standards are dictated by state regulations.
The Plan is available for the public to read.
