Power Interruption
Amador County - Pacific Gas and Electric Company, or PG & E, will temporarily shut down power throughout most of eastern Amador County this Sunday in order to install new electrical poles. The company is sending out notices to residence in the vicinity of Pine Grove, Jackson, Martell, West Point, Sutter Creek, Pioneer and Volcano. PG & E said it does not anticipate the outage to continue for a long period of time and it will do its best to minimize the length of the interruption. The service interruption will take place from approximately 7am to 4pm on Sunday, March 22nd. “If unsafe weather conditions or an unforeseen emergency force us to cancel the work at the last minute, we may be unable to notify you of the cancellation,” said PG & E. A notice of the service interruption will be sent out to customers detailing the operation and the locations affected. For general questions, call PG & E on their 24-hour hotline at 1-800-743-5000.
