SACRAMENTO – The Office of Energy Infrastructure Safety (Energy Safety) today issued its Annual Report on Compliance (ARC) for Horizon West Transmission’s (HWT) 2023 Wildfire Mitigation Plan (WMP).
Energy Safety evaluated the 2023 WMP initiatives of HWT’s approved 2023-2025 Base WMP and found that HWT completed nine of nine or 100 percent of its 2023 initiative targets in its 2023-2025 Base WMP. In 2023 HWT undertook efforts to reduce its wildfire risk and was successful in executing its plan for wildfire risk mitigation.
Energy Safety will continue to monitor HWT’s implementation of its ongoing wildfire mitigation activities and push the company to improve its ability to ultimately eliminate utility-caused catastrophic wildfires in California.
