Liberty Utilities is advising a Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS) for Markleeville, Woodfords, Desolation Hotel (Hope Valley), Topaz, Coleville, and Walker customers, due to extreme weather conditions that increase the risk of a potential wildfire.

Liberty has activated its PSPS protocol and has alerted public safety partners, Medical Baseline Customers, all customers that may be impacted, and other key audiences regarding the possibility of a PSPS. 

* Expected start of PSPS outage: Tuesday, November 4, at 10:00p.m. 

* Expected duration of PSPS outage: from 18-40 hours  

* Number of customers potentially impacted: Approximately 1,535 customers may be impacted by Liberty’s potential PSPS.  See map for details. 

To view the affected areas and stay up-to-date, visit the Public Safety Partner portal HERE. 

If a PSPS is enacted, there will be two Community Resource Centers that people can go to, and will remain open throughout the PSPS.

* Woodfords Community Center, 96 Washoe Blvd, Markleeville

* Walker Community Center, 442 Mule Deer Drive, Walker 

Liberty will also provide regular updates to customers via website, email, social media, and Onsolve (text/phone platform).
