Not-a-PG&E-customer here: where's the animus against specifically catching up on infrastructure maintenance debt coming from?
Corollary: why was said animus not directed to PG&E at the time that maintenance was neglected?
- DeepYogurt 7y agoI haven't followed this closely, but last year's camp fire was blamed on poorly maintained infrastructure and the PG&E line was that there was a lot of poorly maintained infrastructure around the state. To the corollary; most people don't complain about the lack of maintenance until the lack of maintenance becomes a clear problem. That said, I do not know what sort of details PG&E put out in prior reports. I don't know what, if any, public oversight was in place and I don't know if there's merit to the idea that PG&E has been deferring maintenance in exchange for short term profits.
- lokar 7y agoThe regulator specifically approves the maintenance levels.
