Let me guess what we will likely find out.
Environmentalists denied PG&E the ability to make their power lines safer by clearing trees around them for example.
I haven’t heard this yet, but expect this scenario could be true.
See post 13 from Boomer on this question. True or not I don’t know but I’m leaning to true.

I think it will be found to be so. That said, with 45% of California’s land area “owned” by the Federal Government, why hasn’t it found to be complicit in the nonsensical policies that have prevented good forest management? Just what has Zinke been doing as Interior Secretary to undo this nonsense? While they are trying to pillory PG&E, they might want to turn the investigation onto BOTH the State AND Federal governments. PG&E is quasi-incompetent, but causing it to go broke isn’t going to solve the problem.
The other thing that’s going to go through the roof here is fire insurance on homes. We just changed insurance carriers after 35 years with the same company, because of their “recovery” policies charging all their customers for the fires of two years ago in Napa and Sonoma Counties. You will need to avoid “mutual companies” like the one’s with FARM in their names, or expect to pay through the nose.
