About PSOM

NV Energy said PSOM is a measure to help protect communities and the environment from wildfires. During a PSOM event, power is shut off to prevent power lines, debris blown into power lines or other equipment from causing a wildfire when certain environmental conditions are met.

Factors that contribute to a PSOM event include weather conditions, vegetation levels, field observations and guidance from local fire departments and other first responders.

All impacted customers will be notified by phone, text and email. NV Energy said it will also contact Green Cross customers in the area to offer accommodations if a PSOM event is initiated.

NV Energy said it will continue to monitor fire weather conditions and provide regular updates to impacted customers.
