Providing Public Comment to Energy Safety

Energy Safety wants to hear from you! We encourage comments from the public on issues and proceedings to help us reach informed decisions.

Members of the public can provide public comments to Energy Safety proceedings by submitting documents through our e-Filing System. The Energy Safety e-Filing System is organized by Cases. A Case is a type of proceeding, such as Wildfire Mitigation Plans or Safety Culture Assessments. Stakeholders also can receive notification of filings, public events, and workshops by signing up for the Service List for individual Cases. Event details will also available on our Events & Meetings page.

How to Submit a Public Comment

Upload comments via e-Filing

The public can access the e-Filing System through a link on the Energy Safety public website’s “e-Filing System” tab. You may search and browse published documents related to all of Energy Safety’s responsibilities and provide comments. The Energy Safety e-Filing System is structured by Cases, with multiple Dockets per Case. To upload your comment:

    1. Enter Energy Safety’s e-Filing system and select ‘Submit E-Filing’ or ‘Submit Confidential E-Filing’ at the top of the page;
    2. If you already have an account, enter your login information or create a new account.
    3. Select the Docket you wish to file to, and your role;
    4. Upload one or more files and add descriptive information for each file;
    5. Review the document, accept the terms and conditions for submission. You will receive an email confirmation once submitted;
    6. Once Energy Safety has approved your application for e-Filing, you will receive a further confirmation email with a link to your docketed document(s).
