CALIFORNIA — The Golden State extended its Flex Alert Saturday and asked residents to conserve energy for a second consecutive day as a rapidly spreading wildfire in Southern Oregon threatened vital transmission lines used to power California.
The alert from the California Independent System Operator originally came down Friday and asked residents to conserve energy from 4 to 9 p.m. On Saturday, CAISO again asked residents to lower thermostats and continue to conserve power during the evening hours.
