Summary
Would have required the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) to develop and implement backup power rules for telecommunication services in areas that the CPUC has determined to be at high risk of wildfire. The bill at one time included language on electrical system reliability and backup generation that could have involved cleaner backup generation technology of interest to CARB. Held on suspense in the Assembly Appropriations Committee.
