Antonovich and the , for not coordinating with local officials, and for not having a good enough plan in place to deal with extended power outages.

“We all survived the hurricane, the wind, the tornado the Santa Anas and we had a very lame response from Edison,” Antonovich said.

When asked if the company conducted disaster training, Edison officials indicated that they had done a training two months ago, Antonovich said.  The supervisors asked for confirmation that the training had happened and how the training worked.

“It’s still a process that we’re involved with,” Antonovich said. “I can’t estimate the amount of dollar wise, inconvenience wise, that people lost all their food.”

“The good news is our communities were able to pull together,” Antonovich said. “I really appreciate the town council and their relationship.”
