   PG&E will not be able to inform customers in advance of the shut-offs that   
   could occur anywhere within the company's service area   
      
   San Francisco-based power provider PG&E Corp said on Friday it has started   
   rotating power outages at the direction of California's grid operator,   
   impacting about 200,000 to 250,000 customers at a time, given the strain   
   on the power grid during the statewide heatwave.   
      
   The company said in a statement it is not calling a public safety power   
   shut-off, which is conducted during specific high fire threat conditions.

   PG&E said its outages, directed by the California Independent System   
   Operator, are expected to impact up to 250,000 customers at a time in   
   rotations of one hour each.   
      
   PG&E will not be able to inform customers in advance of the shut-offs that   
   could occur anywhere within the company's service area, the statement   
   said.   
      
   PG&E SAYS BANKRUPTCY COURT APPROVES ITS CHAPTER 11 REORGANIZATION PLAN   
      
   Last year, PG&E's power shut-offs hit hundreds of thousands of homes and   
   workplaces in northern California and were condemned by customers as well   
   as authorities for being too widespread, with insufficient communication.   
      
   The company recently emerged from bankruptcy, marking an end to a long-   
   drawn restructuring process which began after its equipment sparked some   
   of the deadliest wildfires in California.
