The combined impact of several days of ground-saturating rain and heavy snow loading could result in trees falling down in some areas, taking down power lines and interrupting electric service. PG&E crews and emergency personnel are standing by and prepared to respond to electric hazards and power outages when and where they occur. To prepare for storms and minimize tree related outages, PG&E has an extensive preventive maintenance and tree trimming program. Each year, the utility inspects every mile of electric line in its service area ��� more than 130,000 miles total ��� and spends more than $180 million to reduce the hazards of trees and bushes. When outages do occur, PG&E employees remain focused on ensuring public safety, determining the extent of the damage, providing customers and media with timely and accurate information, and DUI crackdown campaign for holidays The California Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) is providing federal funding to law enforcement agencies throughout the state for high visibility DUI enforcement this holiday period and will reinforce the message to bar-goers to plan for a safe ride home. Although the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration recently announced 2011figures showing that the state's DUI deaths remained unchanged from 2010 at a 67 year record low 774, even that level is unacceptable. During this year's Crackdown, OTS will fund more than 325 DUI checkpoints and hundreds of saturation patrols through Jan. 1 to decrease impaired driving and reinforce its message to Report Drunk Drivers. Call 911. The California Highway Patrol and over 500 participating law enforcement agencies throughout California will conduct increased sobriety checkpoints and saturation patrols throughout the state. This is the first wave in what will be nearly 2,000 DUI checkpoints over the next year, slightly more than last year and more than any other state. "Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs is not only illegal, but incredibly dangerous," said OTS Director Christopher J. Murphy. "Law enforcement will be out in force with a commitment to stopping those who are endangering themselves and others by driving while impaired. Checkpoints, strategically targeted patrols, and an increase in police presence on our roadways will help ensure that these offenders are caught and arrested." These operations not only aim to remove impaired drivers from the roadways, but also raise public awareness about the dangers of alcohol and drug impaired driving. Officers that are specially trained in drug detection will also be on hand to identify and arrest drivers under the influence of legal and illegal drugs, a problem that is quickly growing on California's roadways. This year's efforts also include a new addition to the popular "RUOK?" anti-drunk driving campaign, which aims to educate Californians year- First Saturday of every month 50% OFF* The Tehama County Sanitary Landfill Agency will conduct a Free Electronic Waste Collection Event, Saturday, December 29, 2012 from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at the following locations: ��� Red Bluff - Tehama County Department of Social Services at 310 South Main St. ��� Corning - Park and Ride Commuter Parking Lot, northeast corner of Third and Solano Police reports The following information is compiled from Red Bluff Police Department, Tehama County Sheriff���s Department, Corning Police Department and California Highway Patrol.

These materials also include a QR code linking users to a GPS-enabled cab-finder mobile website, which they can use to search for a nearby cab. The street teams will also encourage people to actively engage in campaign efforts via a "Not Driving" Instagram contest, another new element of this year's campaign effort. Participants are asked to follow OTS on Instagram, upload photos that demonstrate their safe ride home, and add a "not driving," caption and a #RUOK hashtag. Contest winners can receive taxi ride vouchers, donated by Taxi Magic, its participating fleets and other OTS partners.

The new spin on the "RUOK?" campaign emphasizes the importance of safe and sober rides. The campaign takes aim at popular nightlife areas in four major cities throughout the state: Los Angeles, Sacramento, San Francisco and San Diego. "Wrapped" cars which are made to look like law enforcement cruisers in the front and taxi cabs in the rear will be placed in high-traffic areas every weekend during the crackdown. These engaging displays will help remind patrons of popular bars and restaurants that every night out can end safely by taking sober and responsible modes of transportation home rather than risk a trip to jail by driving drunk. Each car will be accompanied by a street team that will distribute materials that highlight rides home that are both normal -- taxi, sober friend -- and ridiculous -pirate ships and giant chickens.

Report downed power lines immediately by calling 911 and PG&E at 1-800-743-5002. Do not use candles because of the risk of fire. If you must use candles, use extreme caution. Do not use candles near drapes, under lampshades or near holiday trees. Keep candles away from small children, and do not leave candles unattended. If your power goes out, turn off or unplug all electric appliances; otherwise, several appliances may come back on at once and overload your circuits when power is restored. Hot appliances also pose a fire hazard if they come back on while you���re away or asleep.
