You can call PG&E about trimming vegetation near power lines, but if the branches come from several tons of fuel load that originate on someone’s private property, you’re mostly SOL because of state and local laws.

Sorry should’ve been more specific. I mean, remove giant non-native bomb trees that carry 25-30 tons of fuel load per acre and were estimated to be 70% of the energy release of the 1991 Oakland fire.

Anyway, yes, PG&E is technically a convicted felon after the San Bruno explosion. But the current crisis is also the making of Californians that don’t want to make hard choices and investments themselves in the face of climate change.
