Wildfire Safety and Prevention


Even in historically wet, mild Oregon, summers are getting hotter and drier, with longer wildfire seasons. The overall risk of wildfires is growing. 

The increasing frequency of extreme weather events and threat of natural disasters have prompted EWEB to adapt operational practices while making strategic investments to mitigate wildfire risk and improve electric system resiliency. A resilient system can adapt, withstand, and recover efficiently from a catastrophic event without significant disruption to electric service.
