While I don't support the outage or PG&E's analysis, their argument is likely that they had to shut down a few key sites in Central / Eastern CA, and thus they couldn't figure out how to power the Bay Area. "Stupid isn't illegal."
Props to contacting the State. This situation won't get any better if there's no pressure on them. Marin has independence with respect to water, perhaps they'll get power, too, somehow.
