Sen. Dodd’s blistering attack of PG&E blackouts
State Senator Bill Dodd, D-Napa and Sonoma, today fired off a blistering attack of PG&E and how it “bungled” last week’s power shutdown.
“I commend Gov. Newsom for demanding a review into the scope and timing of last week’s poorly handled power shutoff, which caused unnecessary suffering and inconvenience to hundreds of thousands of Californians,” Sen. Dodd said.
“It was severely bungled on the part of PG&E, and it can’t be allowed to happen again. While public safety power shutoffs have a role to play, they cannot be executed in a cavalier or haphazard manner.
I look forward to the Public Utilities Commission holding PG&E to account and mandating substantial changes to protect the public going forward.”
On Friday, Sen. Dodd sent a letter to the Public Utilities Commission president, urging she look into the power shutoff:

Thank you so much! This was beautifully written and I couldn’t agree with you more.
P.S. There are two typos that I came across. Please be sure to proofread before sending it out because you may loose some credibility and we don’t want that at all.
