Follow up on the So CA fire issue:
As of this morning, there has been significant progress with fire containment in the region:
- Palisades Fire: 14% contained
- Eaton Fire: 33% contained
- Hurst Fire: 95% contained
We continue to experience minimal impact on our employees and operations. Last week, a few of our team members were temporarily displaced due to power outages and evacuations, but we’re happy to report that all have safely returned home.
On the operational side, there remains limited access to residential areas in the following cities:
- Pacific Palisades, Encino, Burbank, Pasadena, Malibu, Santa Monica, Calabasas, and Altadena.
Residential shipments going to these areas are primarily handled by L2L, who has been in direct contact with customers to service what we can, while also initiating the reconsignment process for those that cannot be serviced at this time. I spoke to our TM Oscar this morning and he’s got a solid handle on this.
We do not anticipate any issues with city operations this morning or linehaul operations this evening.
Thank you to everyone who has reached out to check on the safety of our teams. Your support is greatly appreciated.
