SB 742: Electricity: electrical infrastructure: permanently abandoned transmission facilities: emergency response: liaisons.

The bill aims to improve wildfire mitigation in the state by requiring electrical corporations to remove permanently abandoned transmission facilities. The corporations must also update their wildfire mitigation plans to include information about these facilities and the measures taken to prevent hazards. Additionally, the bill establishes procedures for coordination between electrical corporations, local utilities, and emergency response agencies to enhance emergency response efforts. These procedures require the establishment of liaison representatives to work with local emergency operations centers. The bill imposes new duties on local utilities, which are considered a state-mandated local program.
