Residents are encouraged to follow a few basic procedures, which will help keep everyone safe until the power is restored:

• Turn off and unplug all appliances during an outage. When power is restored, plug appliances in one at a time. This will prevent power surges and reduce fire hazards when electricity is restored.
• Traffic signals may be out in some areas. Approach intersections with non-functioning traffic signals with caution. Treat them as if they were a four-way stop.
• Please do not call 9-1-1 to check the PG&E Power Shutoff status. 9-1-1 phone lines must be available to receive emergency phone calls.
• Make sure generators are never used inside a home or in enclosed spaces.
