This current report and its exhibit include forward-looking statements. Edison International and Southern California Edison Company ("SCE") based these forward-looking statements on their current expectations and projections about future events in light of their knowledge of facts as of the date of this current report and their assumptions about future circumstances. These forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties that may be outside the control of Edison International and SCE. Edison International and SCE have no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether due to new information, future events, or otherwise. This current report should be read with Edison International's and SCE's combined Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 ("2018 Form 10-K").
Item 7.01 | Regulation FD Disclosure |
On March 13, 2019, Edison International’s principal subsidiary, SCE, issued a press release regarding a report that was issued on the same day by the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (“CAL FIRE”) and the Ventura County Fire Department (“VCFD”). A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99 to this report.
Item 8.01 | Other Events |
As discussed in the 2018 Form 10-K, SCE believes that the Thomas Fire had at least two separate ignition points, one near Koenigstein Road in the City of Santa Paula and the other in the Anlauf Canyon area of Ventura County. SCE previously disclosed that its equipment was associated with the Koenigstein Road ignition point. CAL FIRE and VCFD issued a report on March 13, 2019 on their review of the causes of the Anlauf Canyon ignition point. The report alleges that SCE’s equipment was involved in the Anlauf Canyon ignition point. SCE has not received the attachments to the report, nor has it been able to inspect equipment in VCFD and/or CAL FIRE’s possession that was located in the Anlauf Canyon area. Based on currently available information, SCE has not determined whether its equipment caused the ignition in the Anlauf Canyon area. SCE provided evidence to CAL FIRE and VCFD that indicates the ignition at Anlauf Canyon started at least 12 minutes prior to any issue involving SCE's system and at least 15 minutes prior to the start time indicated by VCFD in its report. Final determinations of liability would only be made during lengthy and complex litigation processes.
