PG and E update on Humboldt County outages; over 70 crews working in Northern region

The following is from Mark Van Groder to the Humboldt County Board of Supervisors. Fifth District Supervisor Ryan Sundberg shared this with me, in response to my calling him and he wanted to get the most current information out to voters.


According to PG and E, Humboldt County is experiencing outages in groups of less than 500 +/- customers per outage. Several hundred customers are out of power due to the ongoing storm. The outages are in various and remote areas. 

Wind and trees related damage is causing outages with downed power lines and broken poles in the Humboldt County area.

At 1500 a total of 3,217customers are without electricity in 53 outages.

PG&E has over 70 crews serving the northern region to address these multiple outages and working to restore power as quickly as possible.

PG and E government representative told the Humboldt County Supervisors to call him if they have urgent concerns about repair and restoration.

Multiple crews responding but some restoration may take several hours due to restoration locations and storm conditions.
