Pacific Gas and Electric Company Sends Crews to San Diego to Help With Power
Restoration Efforts in Fire's Wake
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 27 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Pacific Gas and Electric
Company today sent 13 construction crews, as well as supervisors, mechanics, and
support personnel, to help restore power in the San Diego area in the wake of
devastating fires in the region.
The crews will rebuild electric transmission and distribution lines in northern
and southeastern San Diego County, by replacing poles and hanging new wire. They
are equipped and prepared to work in rough terrain, if necessary.
The 75 PG&E employees include a total of 68 repair personnel, two supervisors
and two clerical support, one superintendent, and two fleet mechanics. They
began assembling this morning, coming from all over northern and central
California, and are expected to reach the San Diego area by late tonight. They
are expected to be deployed for at least one week, or longer if necessary.
By dispatching crews from several areas, instead of one, PG&E is able to
minimize any impact on its ability to provide safe, reliable service to its
customers. The 13 repair crews come from San Francisco, Hayward, Salinas,
Templeton, Stockton, Merced, Yuba City, Vacaville and Ukiah.
San Diego Gas & Electric requested PG&E provide this mutual aid assistance early
this morning.
