November 2018 California Wildfires

The CPUC is conducting staff investigations of the Camp Fire in PG&E's service territory and the Woolsey Fire in Southern California Edison's service territory to assess the compliance of electric facilities with applicable rules and regulations (CAL FIRE determines the sources of ignition of the fires and the way that the fires spread).

The CPUC works closely with CAL FIRE and Cal OES through Memorandums of Understanding that deal with how the agencies coordinate on response to fires and investigations.
