Calaveras Spared From PG&E PSPS

Wilseyville, CA — 262 Calaveras County PG&E customers were bracing to lose power last night, but it never happened.

The main areas impacted in the Sierra foothills include parts of Nevada, Butte and Yuba counties, and in the Bay Area, parts of Napa, Contra Costa, Solano and San Mateo counties.
