This afternoon, PG&E started to issue weather “all clear” in targeted areas affected by the PSPS event, specifically Stanislaus and Santa Cruz counties and portions of Santa Clara and Alameda counties. After all clears are issued, customers receive an automated update from PG&E on their estimated time of restoration and crews begin patrols, inspecting equipment and making repairs where needed before restoration can begin.
Additional “all clears” are expected today, and the remaining all clears will occur Thursday morning. Barring findings of significant damage to assets or inability to access assets, all PSPS-related restorations are expected to be complete by Thursday evening.
PG&E made contact with essentially all Medical Baseline and self-identified vulnerable customers by phone, text, email, or in-person visits to alert them about the PSPS and see if they needed further assistance.
More than 900 customers have visited the various Community Resource Centers since Tuesday, and they will remain open through Thursday to support customers without power.
