SCE Wildfire Safety Virtual Community Meeting

Thursday, August 27, 6:00 - 7:30 p.m.

Post Date:08/21/2026 11:43 AM

The City of Goleta is sharing this information on behalf of SCE.

During times of low humidity, dry vegetation and high winds, Southern California Edison may use Public Safety Power Shutoffs (PSPS) to proactively and temporarily shut off power to keep communities safe and reduce the risk of a fire caused by utility equipment. Due to the risk of extreme weather facing Southern California, residents may experience longer and more extensive PSPS outages, including in areas that historically have not experienced PSPS.

To help you stay informed and prepared for PSPS, SCE is hosting a virtual discussion for Santa Barbara County, on Thursday, August 27, from 6:00 - 7:30 p.m. You will learn about:

  • How to prepare for outages
  • Available programs and services
  • Getting support during an outage
  • Enhancing emergency preparedness
  • Opportunities for questions and feedback
