Any news on what happened to the statewide “bury high risk lines” project? I get the impression it was very expensive, since PG&E was touting it, but the last time I heard (a year or so in), they had not yet buried 10 miles of line, statewide. This was a few years ago.

For reference, we have buried about 1000ft of line on our property (pg&e actively prevented us from burying an additional 200ft of their line that runs through trees and has been taken out by limbs since then).

So, we’re over 1% the statewide first year burying project. (Our lines do not count towards their total).

Do you have to maintain a strip on top, free of any new tree roots?
