Pacific Gas and Electric Company crews are being deployed to help restore power to those impacted by Hurricane Irma in Florida.
125 line workers, equipment operators, supervisors and support personnel will fly to Florida on Friday as part of the Hurricane Irma response team from California.
“When major earthquakes struck Napa in 2014 and the Bay Area in 1989, and when Super Storm Sandy wreaked havoc on the Eastern Seaboard in 2012, our employees stepped up to help those in need. Safely restoring power to customers affected by major disasters such as a wildfire, hurricane or earthquake begins the process of returning life back to normal for communities," said Nick Stavropoulos, President and Chief Operating Officer of PG&E.
