Vegetation Management
PG&E crews are in the process of marking and cutting down trees that could potentially pose a hazard. The wood from trees taken down by our contractors may qualify for no-cost removal. Learn more at Vegetation Management.
Starting in April 2019, PG&E streamlined the process to remove wood debris in the Camp Fire area. Learn more in Currents.
Community Wildfire Safety Program
PG&E has precautionary measures in place to help reduce the risk of wildfires. Our goal is to help customers prepare for and stay safe during extreme weather events, including sending notifications when and where possible when power may be turned off for safety.
Keep contact information up to date
For public safety, it may be necessary for us to temporarily turn off electricity when gusty winds and dry conditions, combined with a heightened fire risk, are forecasted. We will attempt to contact customers in advance to ensure there’s enough time to prepare.
