In This Issue:
Thank you to everyone who called or filed an online complaint with the CPUC regarding PG&E’s frequent, unplanned outages. Your voices were joined with residents in Santa Cruz, Tuolumne, and other counties and resulted in action by CPUC President Marybel Batjer:
“While I acknowledge how critical it is to public safety to reduce the risk of utility-ignited wildfires, it appears that PG&E decided to implement Fast Trip settings this summer with little forethought as to whether the settings were appropriately calibrated, what outreach to public safety partners and customers was necessary in advance, and how customer impacts would be mitigated and vulnerable customers’ medical needs addressed. Fast Trip outages are more than a matter of inconvenience – they are disruptive, and for customers who rely on electricity to maintain necessary life functions, they can be life-threatening.”
See the complete letter which includes a directive for a written response from PG&E to specific questions by November 8, 2021:

Thank you for inviting me to share information during the Cool-Pilot Hill Advisory Committee (CPHAC) meeting on 10/27/21. Everyone’s enthusiasm and thoughtful questions were a great way to start the brainstorming that will be helpful to the project.
County staff is in the process of hiring a consultant to work with community groups in Rural Centers. In the meantime, it is good to see folks come together to start preparing to work with the consultant. As a result, my office has put together a few documents, maps, and links to help get you started. We will add more information as it becomes available:

We plan to publish future meeting dates and information in our District IV newsletter and Facebook page. However, if you would like to connect directly with the CPHAC for future meeting dates, please contact Susan Yewell at 505.699.5127, or sby813@gmail.com
