REUTERS: The California Public Utilities Commission has raised concerns over certain deficiencies that it says could affect PG&E Corp's ability to provide safe and reliable service, the power provider disclosed in a regulatory filing on Wednesday.
The regulator, in a letter https://bit.ly/37007E8 to PG&E dated Tuesday, said it will require remediation on specific issues identified in the San Francisco-based utility's wildfire mitigation plan progress reports.PG&E emerged from bankruptcy in July, marking an end to a long-drawn restructuring process which began after its equipment sparked some of the deadliest wildfires in California.
CPUC said its concerns arose from what appeared to be a pattern of vegetation and asset management deficiencies. The regulator said its staff had"identified a volume and rate of defects in PG&E's vegetation management that is notably higher than those observed for the other utilities." CPUC said a fact-finding initiative is underway to determine if the regulator needed to place PG&E into the"enhanced oversight and enforcement process."
