The full webinar schedule, along with more information about PG&E’s Community Wildfire Safety Program, can be found at www.pge.com/wildfiresafety.

PG&E is hosting a series of county webinars to detail the progress of its numerous actions being executed as part of the Community Wildfire Safety Program and share how any needed PSPS events in 2020 are expected to be smaller in scope, shorter in duration and smarter for customers. With these webinars, even amid the ongoing COVID-19 health impacts, PG&E will keep customers and communities informed about its continuing important safety work to prevent and mitigate the serious risk of catastrophic wildfires while keeping customers and communities healthy and safe. The schedule has been set up so that customers in adjoining counties can participate and hear details specific to their county. The webinars will feature a brief presentation and provide ample opportunity for participants to ask questions and provide feedback. “As we all work to meet the challenge of COVID-19, we also know wildfire season is around the corner,” said Laurie Giammona, Senior Vice President and Chief Customer Officer for PG&E. “We want to ensure our customers understand the steps that we are taking in their community to prepare and improve for this year.” PG&E has sought feedback and is listening to customers and communities about how it can do better, make improvements and take action. Since last year’s wildfire season, PG&E has participated in nearly 200 meetings with state and federal agencies, local emergency managers, local elected leaders, customers and community groups to listen, partner and improve. PG&E is continuing to conduct outreach to counties and tribes for coordination meetings, in addition to weekly webinars. Given COVID-19 guidelines, these meetings have transitioned from in-person to web-based gatherings and the company continues to share its plans, seek feedback and make additional improvements. This year, PG&E is enhancing and expanding its efforts to reduce wildfire risks and keep customers and communities safe. Changes reflect feedback from customers, elected leaders and other stakeholders. This includes:
The webinars will take place on Wednesdays from 5:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m., beginning April 29 and continuing through the summer. The following are the webinars planned through May:
Although the webinar events will highlight work in the listed counties, they will be open to all PG&E’s customers throughout the service area. Closed captioning will be available in English, Spanish and Chinese, and there will dial-in numbers for those who aren’t able to join online. PG&E will share the web address and phone number closer to each event. The full webinar schedule, along with more information about PG&E’s Community Wildfire Safety Program, can be found at www.pge.com/wildfiresafety. From: FIRESafe MARIN <info@firesafemarin.org>

We call this "ZONE ZERO," because it's ground-zero when it comes to protecting your home from embers. It's the area closest to your house, including plants, decks, outdoor furniture, and the outside walls and coverings. This area is most vulnerable and should be more aggressively maintained for fire resistance. There should be ZERO combustibles in this zone!

Day 2: Cut Your Grass!Marin's grasslands provide the fuel for our most frequent and fast moving wildfires. Dry grass is particularly susceptible to ignition - carelessly dropped cigarettes, illegal fireworks, mower blades, and hot car mufflers frequently ignite grass fires. These fast-moving fires damage and destroy homes every year in California and Marin, often in the first few minutes of a wildfire before firefighters arrive.

I would like to thank our many community volunteers.
The PRDC’s super volunteer operations group/think-tank (Rich Clarke, Peggy Day, Madeline Hope) assists with activities, including Marin HHS food-sufficiency conference calls & Point Reyes Disaster Council planning. Early on, all three gave input to social distance posters that Madeline & her son Peter made, which were distributed to other disaster councils requesting them. PRDC Neighborhood Liaisons and Area Coordinators made an estimated headcount for the county’s Emergency Ops Center of population by age group in PRS, Olema, Inverness Park & Marshall, to help with planning for possible future food needs. The PRDC Coordinator posts relevant info on West Marin Commons (as do dedicated locals), NextDoor Point Reyes/Inverness and, organized by topic, on pointreyesdisastercouncil.org/Safety Info. The PRDC Coordinator participates in the twice-weekly conference calls run by Marin HHS about food sufficiency, distribution & future planning, with West Marin Senior Services; the food pantries in Point Reyes Station (West Marin Community Services), Tomales (Town Hall), San Geronimo Valley (Community Center), Bolinas (Community Center);Walnut Place; and the disaster council coordinators in Bolinas, San Geronimo Valley and Tomales. PRDC Neighborhood Liaisons and Area Coordinators made an estimated headcount for the county’s Emergency Ops Center of population by age group in PRS, Olema, Inverness Park & Marshall, to help with planning for possible future food needs. The PRDC also participates, as needed, in a weekly conference call run by Marin VOAD; and agreed to supply Coastal Health Alliance with certain equipment for any future testing needs.
