Lightning sparked fires. Cal fire at this point has not yet given any specific information on the size or the containment of the fires. Evacuations are underway due to fires along Hennessy Ridge road. As we get more information, we will bring it to you. All of this is happening as a heat wave continues in the bay area. Governor newsom will give an update on the states response to the heat wave as well as the covid pandemic. He signed a proclamation to free up Energy Capacity and reduce the need for Service Disruptions which we saw through the weekend. We will bring you the governors News Conference as soon as it gets underway. We will bring in rosemary with how high the temperatures are going. Another bad day today. The northbay looks like its bullseye for the time being. Temperatures again are expected to be near record breaking. Lets take a look at stormtracker 2. We will zoom in over areas over the northbay. We watched it move from offshore to on shore. You can see all of those lightning strikes just on the north east edge of st. Helena toward middletown. When i was watching this earlier offshore, i could see more the 100 lightning strikes in the area. In the last 10 minutes, anywhere from 16 there, 24 there, and 21 reported. You get the picture. The lightning, thunder, and hail is still out there at this hour. We will get back to this in just a moment. We want to listen to the governor at this time. All of us are struggling and suffering through impact not just here in the state of california, but the impact felt all across the west coast of the United States. This weather has included thousands of dry lightning strikes that have sparked fires throughout the state of california. We have seen wind gusts in the Santa Cruz Mountains north of 74 miles per hour. Record temperatures that we have experienced not just here in california, but the hottest temperatures we have seen over an extended period of time. This includes the headlines that are being garnered around the world with our own death valley that may have recorded the hottest temperature in modern recording period. 90 years. Ly. 130 degree heat and death valley, california. We are all experiencing rather extraordinary conditions. Those conditions have precipitated, as i said, in a number of new fires in the state of california. Many of those fires, they are under 1000 acres. Most of the fires in a condition where we are confident we can tackle. We will ultimately be able to suppress them in relatively short order. There are, however, four larger active fires in the state of california. The river fire near monterey county, the lake fire in la county and the apple fire which is substantially contained down in riverside. You can see the containment and each and every one of those. The ranch fire is at 19 . The lake fire at 31 containment. The apple fire is substantially contained. Those are active fires under extraordinary conditions. It is a way of expressing this heat index that has put enormous pressure not just on all of you individually, but also our firefighters that are dealing with extraordinary circumstances, the likes of which we have not seen in quite some time. So roughly 15 active fires. Most are smaller and brush vegetation fires. These larger fires we continue to act on. Wed like to thank them for their quick support. You can see it has been granted by fema our partners in the river fire and the apple fire. This will help with remuneration and our ability to distribute emergency resources. The power and potency at times like these. Times like these also have precipitated pressure on our Energy Supply across the west, but particularly here in the state of california. It has put pressure that has created temporary Service Interruptions that began on friday. It moved into saturday. We are substantially mitigated on sunday. We are likely to continue today, tuesday, and likely through wednesday evening. We will talk a little bit more about what we anticipate in a moment. Let me give you the size, sale, and the scope. I was handed a note during the midst of my presentation about a new flex alert in the state of california. We were looking to be short of the megawatts needed to provide Uninterrupted Service throughout the state of california. About 100,000 megawatts short of where we needed to be. On sunday, we fell short 450 megawatts. We were able to come up with some load strategies to mitigate the need for further interruptions. As i said, substantially on sunday we saw a minor interruption in service in the state of california. Today, we are anticipating substantially greater need for energy, roughly 4500 megawatts, 4400 to be precise short of where we believe we need to be. That is the top line. We are not just going to accept that as fate. Were going to work to reduce the stress and reduce the need to reach that 4400 megawatt coal. This is through different strategies, demand reduction and different procurement of new energy and the like. This next few days, we are anticipating the challenge as it relates to all of these conditions that have precipitated at once in this historic moment. We have always maintained that you cannot control the weather, but you can prepare for the weather events. And let me make this crystal clear, we fail to predict and plan the shortages, and that is an acceptable. I am ultimately accountable. I will ultimately take responsibility. To immediately address this issue. I will make sure this doesnt happen again in the state of california. That was shortly after i left you on friday. I worked throughout the weekend with our Energy Commission and our independent system operator and the California Public utilities commission. We have been working with mrs. Is large and small and experts across the spectrum to address the immediacy of this crisis, and to understand the conditions that led up to it and ultimately to address the anxiety that each and every one of you are facing. We will make sure that we never come back into this position again. Right now, california, we are currently and urgently deploying resources and working to reduce our energy use. I will ask you to participate in that in a moment. Let me first give you an overview of what has occurred and happen in terms of those efforts over the course of the last 48 hours. I signed an emergency proclamation that very specifically and demonstrably shifts Energy Consumption in the state. We are focused on large energy users. We are shifting to their backup power. They can utilize that power rou those are the peak hours. I can explain in a moment why does evening hours become the most precious in terms of our concerns, particularly as it relates to the sun going down and the utilization of solar. While we have had some peak wind gusts, wind events have been relatively mild. That is a good thing from a Fire Suppression this is the ep the renewal you will portfolio. We are vulnerable and these conditions i have stated. And we have looked to focus on the shared power that we have stored. We have talked a lot in the last year about these public power shutoffs, and the need to have protocols, not just with pge, but our other investor owned utilities that we call the ious. There were new protocols and procedures that are required of these ious as it relates to stored energy. We are going to allow for the utilization for nonpsps purposes of that stored power. Pursuant to the an emergency proclamation that i have put forward. We are working with ports up and down the state of california. Large ships that come in on port, huge container volume, second to none in the United States. Its a west coast port. They utilize a tremendous amount of energy. We are working to reduce the consumption of that energy out the ports to reduce the amount of energy being pulled off the grid. We are working with major customers up and down the state. Some of the largest commercial consumers as well as a lot of established consumers that have brands in the states from tesla and others that have been helpful and accommodating in terms of putting out messages to their Consumer Base regarding the need to reduce usage. We are working to procure and bring online more energy from la dwp getting support from the state water board as it relates to getting more hydro online. We are looking at beakers, peak during a race is called peak her plans the vernacular of our Energy Experts and getting them online. This could put more energy with all the tools in the toolkit to meet the needs of customers in the next 72 hours. Even with all of that, we are likely to fall short. We should see some episodic issues as it relates to supplying the coverage that you deserve and that you demand. Accordingly, it goes without saying, and also to man, what happened. The implications of what this means in the future. This is what we have initiated over the course of the last 48 hours to understand the interrelationship between cal iso and the california Energy Commission. The california Energy Commission does the forecasting in terms of our energy needs. Iso puts our criteria for what is necessary in order to make the forecast. And the puc fundamentally focuses on procurement. It is a shared responsibility between those three agencies. None of us in the state of california are immune nor nacve about hot getting hotter and dry getting drier. What getting wetter. We have long recognized the consequences of Climate Change. We have long recognized that by reconciling our responsibility as the largest states in the United States of america to do more and better in terms of our low carbon green growth future. We are committed to changing the way we produce and consume energy. We have more jobs in this green sector that we do in the fossil fuel space. We see it as an economic imperative. We see it as a moral and we will lead the state and the nation. We are not backing off on that commitment. Quite the contrary. In the process of the transition, in the process of shutting down the desire and need to shut down polluting gas plans, and the desire to go from old to new, and that transition and the need to shut those down comes the need to have more insurance. It comes the need to recognize that there have been by definition demonstrably in the last few days gaps in terms of that reliability. We cannot sacrifice reliability as we move forward in this transition. We will be much more aggressive and focusing our issues and making sure that that is the case. We need to make sure that we have a response system and reliability that meets the expectations that we have all forecasted around issues of Climate Change and around the prospects that this is not the last quote unquote record breaking historic heat dome and experienced that we will have in the state, this region, this nation, or our hemisphere in our lifetime. Quite the contrary. This is what so many scientists have predicted for decades. It is also manifesting in droughts and not just wildfires and not just the issue of concerns around highquality, low caste and Reliable Energy for people that must have the support for their health, for our economic prosperity, and the like. One thing i am certain of is that we will move forward with the kind of focus and diligence required of us to meet our responsibility had on. To guarantee protocols, processes, forecasting that is more sober around the potency of solar. What it means when there is higher humidity and the impact that has on solar. What it means to our broader portfolio mix. Our interdependence with imports and are protocols with export of energy to west coast states. Our capacity on storage in particular that substantially needs to be improved as technology is catching up. I am confident in our capacity to deal with that. The reason i maintain that confidence, the work we have been doing, parlay the work we have been doing with our largest public utilities, but other utilities to really map future of a liability. That looks very differently than today. We have been advancing goals. We are in the transition of that. We have to sober up to the reality that in this transition we will have to be much more mindful in terms of our capacity to provide backup and insurance. I am not pleased with what has taken. I take a backseat to no one. If you were just on the sidelines, you should not be pleased with the moment that we are in in the state of california. We will get into the bottom of it. It will be done swiftly and immediately. We will lay out in detail terms what we are going to do to make sure that this simply does not happen again. That is the certainty that we are committed to in this moment of uncertainty that you have been put into. And with that, i want you to know that is our resolve and our commitment. It also is our request of you to help us mitigate this moment by doing what you can. Many of you are well aware that living in the west coast of the United States, flex alerts happen quite often. Flex alerts are nothing more than what you see appear on the screen. These are encouraging you as a Business Owner to help participate. Some individual actions in the aggregate is a total impact we will have over the course of the next 72 hours to mitigate impact of the energy that we will experience this evening and tomorrow evening in particular. By setting your ac to 78 degrees between 3 pm and 10 pm. Call your homes and offices overnight. In the early morning, close those drapes and make sure the windows are not open an the middle of the day. Consider to the extent you can using major appliances in the off hours. Hours that are not 3 00 to 10 00. I also want to implore you, the impact of those decisions, washing machines, dryers, dishwashers and the like using those major appliances in the off hours can help. As i reminded my two kids this morning as they walked out, turn off those lights when you walk out. That is something that all of us can do more generally. But these four things in particular can really help us conserve energy and help us through this very challenging period of time. Let me turn to another challenge we hathe pandemic and covid19. I will update you on what we have been discussing related to those backlogged cases. We have adjudicated the positivity of 295,000 cases that were in the backlog. We have a lot that were duplicated. We were able to get another numerator and denominator, forgive me, we have 14,861 positive cases that we have put through our backlog. As you know, we were able to clear out all of those backlogged cases last week. The numbers we presented last week include all of the numbers that you see up on the screen. When we did that, we made a commitment to you to go back to the county monitoring list. Remember, 58 counties. Each county has its own unique conditions and circumstances. Some parts of the state are less impacted by covert 19 frame than other parts of the state. We put out a watchlist, a monitoring this, and we update that on a consistent basis. We also update you on those new counties that have entered on our monitoring less. One county in particular has dropped off the list as we brought each and every one of these back log cases to a specific point in time. We can update not only you on the Positivity Rates, update you on the impact that it has had within your respected county, and the impact that has on the monitoring list. Here is what the rate look like before, this is the backlog, but this is the Positivity Rate. This is what it looked like before we put in all of those backlogged cases. You can see on the blue line, for those that might be watching, where we were before the update. The orange line is where we are. Date. Of follows a similar trend. The numbers are precise but not substantially off. When you look back on july 25, 7. 2 around the beginning of august. The bottom line is that the trend line and the hospitalization number and the icu numbers suggested. That is an encouraging sign. Even when you include the Positivity Rate. You can get a closer look here. This looks more like an ekg. You get a sense of where we thought we were doing better. And then it look like with, as you start adding those backlogs, were looking worse. The bottom line is that we are smoothing all of that. Where does that leave us . If you add all of the back log cases over a seven day average pure, 9446. A typical case number. When you add the backlog, the numbers that we put out today are the latest numbers. 6469 positive cases in this state. Those case numbers are high. They are trending in the right direction. Let me be more specific and precise. We are now averaging close to 134,000 tests every single day here in the state of california. 133,600 32 is our average seven day daily number of tests that we have conducted. The percentage of people that have been tested over the course of the last 14 days that of tested positive for covid19 is 6. 9 . Our Positivity Rate is 6. 5 . Accordingly, we have suggested this in the past. The Positivity Rate, again, stabilizing and moving broadly in the right direction. It also connects the expectation that we will see hospitalizations to continue to decline. The good news is that they have been declining statistically. As a consequence, we have experienced a 21 decline in hospitalizations over a 14 day period. 6. 5 positivity. Updated numbers on hospitalizations is down 21 over a 14 day period. By the way, we are now at 7 of our Healthcare System for represented with covid19 patients. As it relates to icu admissions, we are down 60 over a two week period. Again, hospitalizations as well as icu omissions trending and the right direction. We now have, i think it is roughly 19 . Let me confirm it is 19 of our icu it missions are represented with covid positive patients. Again, hospitalizations are trending downward. Icu numbers are also trending downward along with the Positivity Rates here in the state. The last monitoring list that you saw was on august 3. This was the 38 counties of our 58 counties that were included. The new monitoring list we are putting out today, there are now 42 counties on the list. You have to be on the list for 3 days or appear on this list as long as we see trends over a three day period. Youre pulled off if we see three days of trends holding stable. We go from 38 counties to now 42 counties. Lets get underneath and look at which counties were added in which kelly was removed. Amador and mendocino counties were added. This is when we went back to 7 25. Amador was two days on and mendocino was two days on and then i want to applaud the leadership in mendocino. They did not wait for the sub dated information. Id like to think their Health Officer and the county board of supervisors for their leadership. Amador, mendocino, inyo county, cavaleros, sierra just joined the list over the weekend. Calaveras on thursday. Santa cruz on friday was removed from the list. We have set this in the past. You have seen this in the past. This is a dynamic list. People come on, and people come off. I anticipate this week the numbers to shift again. It looks like, all things being equal, and the latest reporting period which we will have later this evening. It is very likely san diego will join the list of those counties removed. So likely tomorrow we will update this. Likely tomorrow we will see san diego on that list. Santa cruz is currently the one county that was removed from the list. So this is the upda learn more and understand the criteria that leads to how you end up on it and end up off of the, go to covid19. Ca. Golf for more information. You can actually go to your county and learn with some specificity exactly how york county is doing. And you can get a sense of the prospect based on the encouraging trend lines the positivitys and case rates and the likelihood that your county may soon come off of that monitoring list. We cant ever have a presentation where we dont encourage you to do the most important things you can do to mitigate the spread of this disease and mitigate the prospects of we will have to extend these monitoring counties and see if our schools reopened. That can be substantially made by your commitment and resolve to wearing a mask, physically distancing is one of the most important things we can do. And also, washing your hands. That is a slide that is very familiar to those that have taken the time to watch her presentations. I want to conclude by reminding you of how deadly this disease continues to be. Over the course of the last 14 days, we have averaged over a 14 day period the loss of 132 lives on any given day. That is jawdropping when you consider that. Our heart goes out to every Single Family that has been torn apart because of the tragic loss of a loved one. I would like to extend my deep respect and admiration. I had the privilege a few days ago to have a meeting with the number of doctors, a number of nurses, some icu nurses that talked about being at wits end and how emotionally exhausted they are. Not just physically exhausting. Nothing was more impactful to them and to me than the issue of loneliness that they described with loved ones that are in and icu and innovated and likely to lose their lives but cannot see a loved one. The impact on male is so profound. None of us, any of us end up in that circumstance. And it so important. It is so important that we take responsibility to do more and better with wearing a mask and trying to do what we can. One of the nurses described buying extra iphones so that their loved ones can see their loved one in icu. The only way they can see them as virtually. Others described all but being there as the only ones swaddling a young child and singing to her young child becomes a covid positive mother cannot hard their child. Forgive me for belaboring this. But people are still dying from this pandemic. Dont be misled by the 18 people that lost their lives. We will see the data from the weekend. 132 human beings losing their lives on a single day. This disease is deadly. Please take it seriously. If we continue to, we will be back in a moderate time, modified world. We can do that much sooner and faster if we continue the course we are currently on. With that, i am happy to take any questions. Hi, governor. Shortly before you spoke the head of the iso pointed the finger at the puc for this shortfall. Do you share that assessment and is there anything you can do to make sure that we have enough energy in the coming days and weeks and is there anything any infrastructure up grades that you would support to make sure that happens . All of the above. We are looking to do exactly that. That is exactly what the emergency proclamation calls for. We are working to get more peak or plans online and more hydro online. We are looking to mitigate our exports and scouring more imports into the state. We are looking at those backup generators. All of the above. We are looking at the efficiency side, the state of california is taking leadership in terms of its own state operations. We have asked the private sector and the flex alert individuals to do the same. As it relates to shared responsibility, we have the california Energy Commission and we have the California Public utilities commission. I sent a letter to all three because of the frame of shared responsibility. We are not pointing fingers right now, but i am taking responsibility to address this issue so we can mitigate the impacts over the next 72 hours and then address these things fundamentally, foundational lay, and to stay on top of this and be transparent and resolve and make sure that we are not back in this position. That is my focus. Weve got an investigation moving forward. We will let you anothers know what we have determined. Good morning, governor, good afternoon. Should people have been told about this account of time . You mentioned there was not enough warning and people cannot prepare for this. What can you tell people now . We are telling them, that is exactly what this presentation is all about. This is why we have a flex alert out. We were notified around this time on friday i we made a presentation, though it was interrupted on the flex alert on friday. You are exactly right. People should have been told sooner and that is exactly the purpose of the investigation and the purpose of understanding what led to these conditions, and how we can mitigate it. We did Something Else as it relates to notifications. That is the ious. The investor owned utilities through san diego and here in northern california, pg e. We have protocols and procedures that we work hard and we have worked with the respective ious on the psps protocols. Its a way of expressing this. We have notification protocols that have been approved to address the size and duration of impacts as it relates to the internet generation associated with wildfire mitigation. Over the weekend we have demanded to initiate those same protocols that they otherwise did not have in place as it relates to this larger event. To put this in place as a way of addressing your appropriate question. I think the appropriate critique that some have expressed including myself. I have a question about paid family leave which is a priority issue. Were listening into governor gavin newsom giving us an update on the states response to the covid19 pandemic. The coronavirus. The governor was stern in saying that even though some metrics are showing a slight positive trend, now is not the time to let up your vigilance when it comes to the basic things hes been talking about. Wearing a mask, six feet away from others and washing your hands. He said, do not be fooled by the fact as a measures and metrics are improving. We are not out of the woods yet. Like we are hearing from the governor today, right after california became the first state in the country to surpass 600,000 cases of the coronavirus. The need for attention to the message is great. The pandemic is nowhere near over. A good news for people in santa cruz county. Santa cruz county getting off of that list and the possibility of San Diego County getting off that list. That is 3. 3 million people. And the governor started this with the power situation that we have been experiencing across the state over the last two to three days. I lost fire, power on friday. The governor is saying the quote, we failed to predict these outages. He came out and apologize for that. Saying that they were unacceptable. He signed an emergency proclamation. It allows utilities to tap into backup power so that we do not experience these rolling blackouts over the next 48 to 72 hours. He is encouraging all californians that we need to conserve electricity from 3 00 in the afternoon to 10 00 at night. We are all in this together.
