There are no plans for a cutback in service levels, just a redistribution of resources to reduce overhead costs.

The Kings Beach and Carnelian Bay operations have been moved to the Tahoe City Substation. The Granite Bay Service Center operations will be moved to the South Placer Substation in Loomis.
