Due to extreme weather conditions, a Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS) may be implemented for THESE AREAS (Sierra Brooks and Loyalton) on or about Wednesday, November 13, 2024, at 10 a.m. and could last more than 24 hours. Customers are encouraged to visit our Community Resource Center from 10 a.m. - 10 p.m. at the Loyalton Senior Center, 302 1st Street, Loyalton, CA, if they are unable to secure necessary alternative power.
A Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS) is a safety procedure utilized by electric utilities to proactively turn off power when and where conditions present an increased wildfire risk. The practice of de-energization is supported by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) as a safety best practice.
