Wilson coordinates with PG&E on every 10K project to support sensitive-species protections, cultural and biological monitoring, wetland specifications, and Storm Water Pollution Prevention (SWPPP) compliance. For distribution lines placed underground via trenching or horizontal directional drilling, Wilson’s environmental staff oversee monitoring requirements, spoils handling, and Best Management Practices (BMPs) for erosion and sediment control. Additionally, in 2024 Wilson performed all restoration and revegetation for an underground project in Auburn, California.
The environmental staff ensures that Wilson crews and all subcontractors stay compliant within this evolving program and acts as liaisons to PG&E and third-party inspectors and contractors. The Wilson environmental team has been quick to adapt to this ground-breaking program and our partnership with PG&E in this work has been growing positively for Wilson’s Northern California Division.
