Councilmember Jacobson AGENDA DESCRIPTION, Consideration and possible action requesting the Southern California Edison Company to submit to the City a viable plan regarding the maintenance of the electrical power distribution infrastructure in El Segundo and an appropriate method of notifying City officials during times of power disruption (Fiscal Impact None) RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION: Recommendation — (1) Authorize the Mayorto formally request the Southern California Edison Company to report back to the City Council the company's plans regarding the appropriate maintenance and replacement of the electrical power distribution infrastructure in El Segundo and a plan assuring appropriate outreach and communications during times of power outages in the community, (2) Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION Over the past several years, I have become increasingly concerned about the Southern California Edison Company's (SCE) maintenance if its facilities in the City, and its efforts to initiate appropriate communications during power outages This issue was illustrated clearly on Sunday, April 1, 2007, when a power outage occurred in the vicinity of Lairport Street and Maple Avenue The outage occurred early in the morning when a tree branch severed a line in the area SCE crews responded, cleared the line and departed the scene before restoring power When power was restored nearly 20 -hours later, one local company experienced a loss of product totaling approximately $60,000, and the initial driving event at the Automobile Driving Museum was canceled If the incident would have occurred during a weekday or in a (Please see attached page marked "Background and Discussion ") ATTACHED SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS. None FISCAL IMPACT- N/A Operating Budget- Amount Requested, Account Number: Project Phase: Appropriation Required REVIEWED BY Aq Jeff Stewart, City Man _Yes _ No DATE, I/AA �o Ai Background and Discussion (con't): more heavily populated area of town, the economic loss and impact would have been much more widespread While that occurrence may not seem unusual, given the various causes of power outages in Southern California, it is significant because it represents, at least, the fourth significant event involving SCE, its equipment or a power outage in El Segundo during the past couple of years A brief summary of those events include, but are not limited to the following • A power outage affecting more than 900 residents in City during the weekend following Thanksgiving 2005 Power was out for most of those people for more than 12 hours, • Last summer an Edison transformer fell suddenly and without apparent cause from a utility pole onto the front lawn of a residence on Lomita Street, creating a dangerous condition for several hours While through luck alone no one was inured or killed by the falling transformer, a clean -up of the area lasted more than a day, necessitated in part by concerns over spills of toxic substances from Edison's device, A power outage affecting more than 1,000 residents on the west side of town lasting more than 12 hours in 2003, and • At least two underground vault explosions leading to significant power outages on the east side of town during the past year I believe that such evidence indicates a persistent failure on the part of SCE to commit the resources necessary to ensure a stable and safe source of electrical power in our City — and, perhaps more importantly, the ability to restore that power when events lead to a disruption SCE has spoken often of its billion dollar investment in infrastructure However, it is our view that the funds have been earmarked for regional transmission lines, and not the local distribution lines that seem to be failing on a regular basis Accordingly, I am requesting that the City Council authorize the Mayor to formally request that SCE report back to the City with a plan that addresses both the company's ability to appropriately maintain its facilities in El Segundo and an appropriate method of communications with City officials during incidents of power disruption and /or significant equipment failure 0 4
