BROADCAST TRANSCRIPT:
In the state of California, many don’t know that PG&E are protecting areas in Bakersfield keeping your utilities working.
The Wildfire operations team is making sure you have electricity and gas inside your home.
“We are heading out towards an area we call the grapevine.” tells me in the car.
Randy Skelton is a PG&E Wildfire operations supervisor he took me on a ride along to the base of the grapevine, where members of his team were ‘treating’ one of their poles.
Kern County is one of 8 areas that PG&E has monitored for the last five years protecting gas facilities, substations, and hydro plants.
