Ebmud To Install Backup Generators In Case Of Wildfire Power Outage The east bay municipal utility district is preparing for mass power outages this wildfire season by installing emergency backup generators in cities all over the east bay. Ebmud is also prepared to keep our water flowing should wildfire risk trigger a public safety power shutoff (psps). we maintain backup generators at critical facilities to ensure we have the electricity we need to treat and pump water through our distribution system.
How To Prepare For Power Outages Backup Generators Emergency Plans Water customers in the east bay may not know that their water supply could get cut off in the event of a wildfire. ebmud said it does have a backup plan for. A psps event could force ebmud to switch to backup generators and pumps to power pumping plants, water treatment plants and other key facilities to keep water flowing, maintain storage and fire flow, and keep water distribution lines pressurized. We have deployed emergency generators and pumping plants in high fire threat areas. during a psps event ebmud will switch to backup generators to power pumping plants, water treatment plants and other key facilities to maintain fire flow and storage, keep water flowing, and water distribution lines pressurized. They help convey water from our treatment plants, which have backup generators on site, to reservoirs and tanks at higher elevations. as a regular practice during red flag warnings, ebmud fills up those reservoirs and tanks to be ready for fire flows.

Ebmud has taken actions to ensure water operations during pg&e power shutoff events with permanent generators at critical facilities and a deployable fleet of portable generators and pumps. We have permanent generators at critical facilities and can deploy portable backup generators and pumps to maintain water delivery. we perform regular hydrant maintenance and inspection, and invest in reservoirs, pumping plants and pipelines to ensure system reliability. To maintain uninterrupted water delivery during pg&e public safety power shutoffs, ebmud deploys backup generators to affected facilities. on red flag days, reservoirs are topped off to maximize water availability for firefighting. Ebmud will soon bring in 29 portable generators to critical pumping stations across the east bay to make sure they can keep water flowing even during a lengthy power outage.
