7 pm – MC_OES: Shelter-In-Place Advisory & Rd Closures lifted/Todos los Avisos de Refugio y Cierres de Caminos levantadosMore/Mas Info: bit.ly/3LyQccU
From this morning:
I have been posting about this on FB and on WD, and realized I need to post here, as well. A fire started in the Tesla Battery Storage facility next door to the power plant in the wee hours of the morning. It has resulted in a haz mat condition for the entire area, which has closed Highway 1 and also a shelter in place order for the immediate area. The best current source of official information is found here: https://www.co.monterey.ca.us/government/departments-a-h/administrative-office/office-of-emergency-services/incidents/power-storage-facility-incident#!/
2022-09-20 06:59 Monterey County Sheriff’s Office and CHP have issued the following road closures, effective immediately, due to the Power Plant Fire: Southbound Highway 1 at Struve Rd, Northbound Highway 1 at Potrero Rd, and Dolan Rd. at Via Tanques.

If not for you, Kate . . . thank-you!
You are quite welcome. I didn’t get it up here as fast as I did to WD, and I was still slow this am…it happens.
These fires and the potentially hazardous effects to wildlife has got to stop. What’s it going to take to reverse the Tesla battery storage at Moss Landing?
Thanks Kate. Was that your info that showed up on Watch Duty, too?
