Stay Safe This Fall: Top Home Safety Tips
Autumn is an ideal time to tackle maintenance projects around your home and yard

PORTLAND, OR. (Nov. 12, 2025) — As leaves change and fall weather settles over the Pacific Northwest, the chill in the air is a timely reminder to look around your yard and take care of home maintenance.

“Fall is a great time to check the condition of your trees and a good opportunity to prune them before they become an issue once storms start,” said Jeremy Gee, Pacific Power’s vice president of health and safety. “Winter storms often cause branches to fall, leading to power outages. Take a moment to check around your property for trees or limbs that could damage power lines if they came down. A little preventive action now can help you avoid future outages and the inconvenience they bring.”

Use caution when pruning trees. Don't use pruning tools or ladders near power lines. Always keep yourself and anything you're handling at least 10 feet away from overhead power lines. Never try to remove a branch that is tangled or lying across a power line. Instead, call Pacific Power at
1-888-221-7070. We'll be happy to remove it for you.

Some additional tips for fall safety:

  • Treat all electric lines with caution.
     
  • Use only wooden and fiberglass ladders. Metal ladders conduct electricity.
     
  • Be aware and steer clear of overhead electrical wires when installing, removing, cleaning or repairing gutters.
     
  • Never use electrical equipment or tools near a pool or other wet areas such as puddles. Additionally, make sure outlets are equipped with a ground fault circuit interrupter, designed to automatically disconnect if the tool comes into contact with water.
     
  • Plant trees and shrubs away from meters, switching cabinets and boxed transformers. Vegetation that blocks electrical equipment makes repairs and maintenance challenging and sometimes dangerous for utility workers.
     
  • Have help when installing or adjusting a satellite dish or antenna. Make sure you’re working at least 10 feet away from overhead power lines.
     
  • Underground power lines are just as dangerous as overhead ones. If your project involves digging, make sure the locations of underground power lines are marked. Call 811 to have underground utilities located and marked for free.

California Climate Credit To Appear On Customer Power Bills - 10/17/25

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE  

Media hotline: 503-813-6018

California Climate Credit to appear on customer power bills

YREKA, CA (October 17, 2025) — Pacific Power residential and small business customers in California can expect to see a credit of $259.36 on their October electricity bill as part of the state's efforts to fight climate change. The twice annual California Climate Credit provides ratepayers with their share of the benefits of California’s Cap-and-Trade Program, which requires large industries that emit greenhouse gases to buy carbon pollution permits.

The majority of Pacific Power’s proceeds are split evenly across each residential household and qualifying small business after covering administrative and outreach expenses and funding clean energy programs.

The California Climate Credit is designed to help customers as the state transitions to a low-carbon future. Each year, the state issues a limited number of greenhouse gas emission allowances in line with California’s goal of reducing its overall emissions to 40% below 1990 levels by 2030.

Customers can call Pacific Power at 888-221-7070 for information about their bill and can learn more about the California Climate Credit at the CPUC website.
