When you talk about electric utilities and wildfires in California, all attention tends to turn to Pacific Gas & Electric, PG&E.
The company's equipment has been found responsible for starting several large fires, including the deadly Camp Fire in Paradise in 2018.
The City of Redding owns the electrical infrastructure in town, through REU, the Redding Electric Utility. And REU is required by state law to prepare annual wildfire mitigation plans.
We get details on the latest plan, completed in May, from REU Program Supervisor Shawn Avery and Redding Fire Chief Jerrod Vanlandingham.
