Prepare for Public Safety Power Shutoffs 

 

California is experiencing a historic heat wave. Utility companies may initiate public safety power shutoffs (PSPS) in high fire risk areas that could last a few hours to a few days. The power shutoffs can impact vaccine storage and management.


Please see the tips and resources below to plan accordingly.  

  1. Review your clinic’s Vaccine Management Plan – ensure it is up‐to‐date and easily accessible.
  2. Review the COVID-19 Provider Operations Manual for responding to vaccine‐related emergencies and be prepared to know how to respond in a power outage.
  3. Replace batteries in digital data loggers (DDLs) to ensure continued operation and monitoring of storage unit temperatures during power outages.
  4. Register with your utility company’s and county’s emergency contact lists to receive PSPS alerts. If not, sign up as soon as possible.
  • Pacific Gas and Electric Company
  • Southern California Edison
  • San Diego Gas & Electric
