Southern California Edison has warned it may initiate a Public Safety Power Outage that affects Carpinteria residents.
To find out if your home is within the area of concern, visit the SCE webpage at https://www.sce.com/outage-center/check-outage-status. Type in your address to determine whether your home is within the areas under consideration for an outage.
These outages are intended to reduce the risk of fire ignition when dangerous weather conditions present themselves: heavy winds and low humidity.
In preparation for an outage, the City of Carpinteria and SCE have established a community resource center where residents can meet with SCE staff to have their questions answered. The community resource center will be open between 8 a.m. and 10 p.m. and is located in the Veterans Hall Meeting Room at 941 Walnut Ave.
