On September 28, 2022, Southern California Edison Company (SCE) filed its third securitization application with the California Public Utilities Commission(CPUC), proposing to finance up to $772.432 million for costs related to wildfire mitigation. If the CPUC approves this application, the securitization transaction will allow SCE to recover these costs and expenses at a lower rate to customers than through traditional utility financing. SCE intends to recover this amount through forecasted costs in electric rates over a 25-year period beginning January 1, 2023. This will result in an annual revenue requirement of$62.858 million for 2023 through the issuance of recovery bonds. This will impact your monthly bill. Why is SCE requesting this rate increase? The California legislature approved Assembly Bill 1054 (AB 1054) authorizing issuance of recovery bonds to fund certain fire risk mitigation costs and associated financing costs. In accordance with AB 1054, SCE is further enhancing and expanding efforts to reduce wildfire risk as part of a multiyear strategy, focused on reducing the potential for fires to be started by electrical equipment and reducing the potential for fires to spread. Financing these costs with recovery bonds reduces the customer rate increase compared to traditional utility ratemaking. How could this affect my monthly electric rates? If SCE's proposed rate increase is approved, an average residential electric non-CARE customer using 500 kWh per month would see a bill increase of$0.48 per month(0.3%), from $149.02 to $149.50. The average residential CARE customer using 500 kWh per month would see a bill increase of$0.32 per month 0.3%), from $100.83 to $101.15. 1 Customer Impact Table Bundled Average Rates (c/kWh) Proposed Proposed Customer Group Current Rates Increase Rates Increase Residential 28.2 0.09 28.3 0.3% Lighting-Small and Medium Power 26.0 0.11 26.1 0.4% Large Power 17.7 0.08 17.8 0.4% Agricultural and Pumping 21.0 0.09 21.1 0.4% Street and Area Lighting 27.2 0.09 27.3 0.3% Standby 14.3 0.02 14.4 0.1% Residential Bill Impact ($/Month) Proposed Description Current Increase Proposed Increase Non-CARE residential bill $149.02 $0.48 $149.50 0.3% CARE residential bill $100.83 $0.32 $101.15 0.3% Assumptions: Current rate based on 1-Jun-22 effective rates Based on 1-Jun-22 sales forecast How does the rest of the process work?

The Administrative Law Judge will issue a proposed decision that may adopt SCE's application, modify it, or deny it. Any CPUC Commissioner may sponsor an alternate decision with a different outcome. The proposed decision, and any alternate decisions, will be discussed and voted upon by the CPUC Commissioners at a public CPUC Voting Meeting.

NOTICE OF APPLICATION Southern California Edison Company's Request to Increase Electric Rates APPLICATION A.22-06-003 Why am I receiving this notice? On June 3, 2022, Southern California Edison Company(SCE)filed its application for authorization to recover recorded 2021 costs that are in addition to the amounts already authorized by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) included in current customer rates. These additional costs are related to money SCE spent on important wildfire mitigation work and vegetation management activities. The application is requesting a total of$327.34 Million. If the CPUC approves this application, SCE will recover those costs in electric distribution rates over a one-year period beginning in 2023.This will impact your monthly bill. Why is SCE requesting this rate increase? • In 2021, SCE completed work necessary to implement its Wildfire Mitigation Plan and execute other important wildfire mitigation activities. • In 2021, SCE also completed substantial vegetation management work to mitigate wildfire risks related to vegetation contact with electric facilities, comply with required laws and regulations, and promote service reliability. • All of these costs are recorded in various CPUC-approved cost tracking accounts and are incremental to costs already in customer rates. How could this affect my monthly electric rates? If SCE's rate request is approved by the CPUC,the average non-CARE residential monthly bill using 500 kWh per month would increase by approximately$3.11 or 2.1% per month at the start of 2023. The average CARE tiered residential monthly bill with the same monthly usage would increase by approximately$2.10 or 2.1% per month.

NOTICE OF ADDITIONAL REQUEST SCE's Request to Increase Electric Rates APPLICATION A.19-08-013-Track 4 Why am I receiving this notice? This customer notice is required by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC). The amount of additional revenue requested by Southern California Edison (SCE)and the subsequent impact on monthly electric rates is not final and, if authorized by the CPUC as requested by SCE,would not take effect until January 1, 2024 at the earliest. On May 13, 2022, Southern California Edison (SCE)submitted an additional request in its 2021 "General Rate Case" (GRC)to the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC)to authorize additional revenue requirements for a fourth year that was added to the 2021 GRC cycle, i.e., 2024. This represents an increase of$971.3 million compared to SCE's revenue requirement of$7.667 billion already authorized for 2023. This is known as "Track 4" of the 2021 GRC. If SCE's request is approved by the CPUC, your monthly bill will be impacted. Why is SCE requesting this rate increase? • Every four years, SCE must file what is known as a GRC application with the CPUC. GRCs set rates that customers pay to fund SCE's day-to-day operations, including maintenance for its equipment and electricity grid upgrades. SCE filed its 2021 GRC Application in August of 2019, which set GRC rates for 2021-2023. • The purpose of SCE's recent"Track 4"submission is for SCE to cover its GRC-related costs for calendar year 2024. This includes costs for SCE's employees to inspect and repair poles and distribution lines and for vegetation management activities intended to reduce wildfire risk. • SCE's Track 4 request relates only to calendar year 2024. How could this affect my monthly electric rates? If SCE's rate request is approved by the CPUC, the average non-CARE residential monthly bill using 500kWh per month would increase by approximately$9.38 or 6.2% per month, and the average CARE residential customers would see approximately$6.34 or 6.2% increase in their monthly bill starting in January 2024.

NOTICE OF APPLICATION APPLICATION OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON COMPANY (U 338-E) FOR APPROVAL OF DEMAND RESPONSE PROGRAMS AND BUDGETS FOR 2023-2027 Application A.22-05-004 Why am I receiving this notice? On May 2, 2022, Southern California Edison(SCE) filed an application with the California Public Utilities Commission(CPUC) requesting approval of SCE's proposed Demand Response (DR)programs and budgets for 2023-2027. DR programs provide incentives to participants for reducing their electricity use when the demand for electricity is high, which helps to prevent outages and other system emergencies. SCE offers a variety of DR programs for business and residential customers. Why is SCE requesting this rate increase? SCE seeks CPUC approval to spend$941 million to fund its DR programs for 2023-2027. Of this total, SCE requests approval to recover through its general rates $252 million in administrative costs. The remaining $689 million of the total proposed budget(which pays for incentives) will not impact average rates. How could this affect my monthly electric rates? If the CPUC approves SCE's application, an average non-CARE 1 residential customer that uses 500 kWh per month and has a monthly bill of$149.80 could see an increase to that bill of$0.48 (48 cents), based on the average annual budget impact of the proposed DR programs in the years 2023-2027. This assumes SCE recovers in rates an average annual administrative cost of$50 million in those years. The following table compares customer rates as of May 1, 2022 to proposed average rates if the CPUC approves SCE's application. The actual rate impacts of this application may vary from what is projected below, depending on other possible changes in rates and funding levels.

SCE's 2023-2027 DR application will be assigned to one or more CPUC Administrative Law Judges, who will consider proposals and evidence presented during a formal hearing process. The Administrative Law Judge(s) will issue a proposed decision that may adopt, modify, or deny SCE's application. Any CPUC Commissioner may sponsor an alternate decision with a different outcome. The proposed decision, and any alternate decisions, will be discussed and voted upon by the CPUC Commissioners at a public CPUC Voting Meeting. Parties to the proceeding as well as members of the public may review SCE's application. Among the parties is the Public Advocates Office, an independent consumer advocate within the CPUC that represents customers to obtain the lowest possible rates consistent with reliable and safe service levels.

On May 16, 2022, Southern California Edison Company(SCE) filed its application with the California Public Utilities Commission(CPUC)requesting review and approval of its 2023 Energy Resource Recovery Account (ERRA)Forecast Application(ERRA Forecast Application or Application). SCE's proposed ERRA Forecast-related revenue requirement for 2023 is $3.898 billion. This is a decrease of$501.4 million for 2023 as compared to SCE's 2022 ERRA Forecast-related required revenue. Why is SCE requesting this rate decrease? • The Application seeks a review and approval of SCE's estimate of the costs for fuel and power that will be needed to provide electricity for SCE's customers in 2023. • The Application is subject to change when SCE submits an updated forecast to the CPUC in October 2022, which may reduce the amount of the decrease or result in an overall rate increase. • The Application also requests approval of other expenses recoverable in ERRA Forecast proceedings, such as expenses related to spent nuclear fuel (stored nuclear fuel that has already been used); and SCE's return of$746.8 million in Greenhouse Gas (GHG) allowance revenues to eligible customers in 2023. How could this affect my monthly electric rates? If SCE's rate request is approved, the average residential monthly bill using 500 kWh per month would decrease by approximately $13.52 or 8.4%per month in 2023.

On May 3, 2022, Southern California Edison served its direct testimony for the second phase (Track 2) of its July 22, 2021 application with the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) for authorization to recover costs related to the Customer Service Re-Platform (CSRP) project. The CSRP project delivers a new billing and customer service system that performs IonClionS such as customer billing and payment processing, credit and collections, and customer account management. The first phase (Track 1) of this application concerned CSRP costs through April 2021. "file second phase (Track 2) of this application will concern CSRP costs after April 2021. In this second phase (Track 2), SCE is requesting approximately S65.0 million in customer rates. Why is SCE requesting this rate increase? • In 2017, SCE formally launched its CSRP project to replace SCE's legacy Customer Service System with a new billing and customer service system. • In April 2021, SCE successfully implemented the new billing and customer service system. • The new billing and customer service system delivered by the CSRP project is more reliable than the legacy system, enables quicker and more efficient customer rate changes, and allows SCE to respond to new regulatory requirements more quickly and effectively. • The first phase (Track 1) of SCE's application focused on SCE's requests to recover costs incurred through April 2021 to design, build, and deploy the new billing and customer service system. • The second phase (Track 2) of SCE's application now focuses on SCE's requests to recover costs incurred after April 2021 to stabilize the new billing and customer service system and to provide on-going system support and maintenance. How could this affect my monthly electric rates? In 2023, if SCE's rate request is approved by the CPUC, the average residential monthly bill using 500 kWh per month Would increase by approximately $0.48 or 0.3% per month for Non- CARE customers and by approximately $0.32 or 0.3% for CARE customers.

SCE's Application requests CPUC approval for an increase of S25.706 million in SCE's revenue requirement due to a net under-collection in Five authorized SCE memorandum and/or balancing accounts. SCE would recover this amount in electric rates beginning in 2023 if the CPUC approves SCE's Application. Why is SCE requesting this rate increase? SCE is required to file its ERRA Review application for the CPUC's review on April I of each year. In 2021, five authorized SCE memorandum and/or balancing accounts had an under- collection of funds that were necessary to provide electric service to SCE's customers. As a result, SCE requests to recover the under-collection would increase residential customers' rates by approximately 5 cents per month, for one year. How could this affect my monthly electric rates? If SCE's rate request is approved by the CPUC, the average residential monthly bill using 500 kilowatt-hours (kWli) per month would increase by approximately S0.25, or 0.17% per month, from St49.80 to S150.05.

PLAN PURPOSE The Southern California Edison Company (SCE) Edison Carrier Solutions (ECS) Emergency Operations Plan outlines a threat-specific strategy for mitigating, planning for, responding to, and recovering from disruptions to the system that cause an outage incident. Based on scenarios most likely to occur, it is intended to guide how ECS will coordinate critical preparedness, response, and restoration activities before, during and after an actual telecommunications outage incident. ECS is a business unit within SCE. ECS is primarily established to provide commercial telecommunications services to telecommunications carriers. internet service providers, commercial mobile radio service providers, cable and satellite television companies. and enterprise customers. Service is provided to commercial customers only and ECS does not provide voice service or service to residential customers. This plan outlines the roles and responsibilities for Incident Management Teams (IMT) during response operations It is designed to help ensure safe and efficient restoration for any type of outage through consistent use of the Incident Command System, identification of applicable prioritization and restoration strategies, and the development of a common operating picture for communicating situational awareness to internal and external stakeholders. This plan does not supersede or replace existing procedures for safety. hazardous materials response, or other similar procedures adopted and in place, including and not limited to specific response plans prepared to address individual circumstances or to comply with regulatory requirements. The ECS incident response and associated emergency response and recovery plans are governed and/or informed by the following: • Federal Communications Commission's (FCC) network outage reporting regulations' • CPUC telecommunications outage reporting regulations' • Telecommunications Service Priority (TSP) Program for National Security and Emergency Preparedness' • CPUC Decision Adopting Wireline Provider Resiliency Strategies D 21-02-029 • CPUC General Order Number 95 and General Order Number 128 47 C.F.R. §4.1-4.15 https//www.govvnfogov/app/details/CFR-2015-title47-volt/CFR-2015-litle47-voll-parl4 z CPUC General Order 133-C Rules Governing Telecommunications Services 347 C.F.R. §64, Appendix A Page 1 PLAN ACRONYMS AREP Agency Representatives BRDM Business Resiliency Duty Manager CFR Code of Federal Regulations CMC Crisis Management Council DWDM Dense Wave Division Multiplexing ECS Edison Carrier Solutions EOC Emergency Operations Center FCC Federal Communications Commission's ICS Incident Command System ICT Incident Communications Team IMT Incident Management Team IST Incident Support Team LNO Liaison Officer SCE Southern California Edison Company SOC State Operations Center SEMS Standardized Emergency Management System NIMS National Incident Management System TCC Telecommunications Command Center TTC Transmission Telecommunications Organization Page 2 DRIVERS AND ASSUMPTIONS ECS is actively engaged in managing potential reliability and safety impacts from incidents that may cause disruption to its commercial telecommunications system by prioritizing damage assessment, restoring critical infrastructure and communicating with internal and external stakeholders to increase situational awareness. Specific drivers and assumptions for these events include, but are not limited to, the following: • Damage assessment operations will be performed when safe to do so. • Restoration activities may need to be prioritized based on response operations. • Organizational units may be required to modify their daily operations to assist with incident management. • Business Continuity and/or Disaster Recovery Teams may be activated for incident response operations. • Local EOCs may be activated to coordinate city, county and state government response to an ECS incident. • SCE and ECS personnel may be deployed to communicate and coordinate activities with city, county and state EOCs where necessary. Page 3 SCENARIOS AND POTENTIAL IMPACTS The ECS Emergency Plan uses four incident intensity levels: Mild, Moderate, Severe and Catastrophic. These intensity levels are established for the ECS commercial telecommunications as a whole. The overall incident intensity level is based on an aggregation of individual trouble ticket information that has been augmented with consideration for unrelated widespread outages such system-wide interruptions. ECS will base all prevention, mitigation, preparedness, response and recovery operations related to outage incidents on the following scenarios and potential impacts based on intensity. SCENARIOS Mild Incident Scenario A mild incident is typically localized to one or more circuits with a single cause and normal resources are sufficient to manage response and recovery activities. Mild incidents are frequent, occurring several times a month. Characteristics include: • Customer interruptions: "Standard" ECS customer outage with clear recovery path (fiber cut, equipment failure, and TCC/ECS working to resolve and communicate with customer). customers may be 'hard down' without service or 'non-redundant' with a backup circuit still functioning or in a ring with a secondary pathway. • Restoration: There are sufficient field personnel, restoration technical resources (fiber optic cable, equipment, telecommunications cards, optics, etc.) and other technical or operations specialist resources. • Majority of customers are typically expected to be restored in less than 24 hours. Moderate Incident Scenario A moderate incident is typically spread over multiple systems or in a more intense isolated incident that requires additional resources to manage response and recovery activities. Moderate incidents are experienced only a few times in any one year. Such incidents can be characterized by multiple ECS customers 'hard down' or critical systems impacted resulting in: • Customer interruptions: Multiple customers carrying critical information/data impacting their businesses or the customers of their business. Such traffic may include cellular traffic, business data, first responder networks or other businesses where telecommunications services are critical to their operations. • Restoration: Sufficient field personnel, restoration technical resources (fiber optic cable, equipment, telecommunications cards, optics, etc.) and other technical or operations specialist resources are available or may be reallocated to provide assistance with extended shifts for personnel. ECS Tier- 3 support may potentially reroute customer traffic to other cables and/or systems based on priority and availability of fiber and network resources. • TCC telephone bridge with ECS Tier-3 and other shared partners may be enabled. ECS leadership (via escalations) may be engaged as well to assist in managing customer expectations and communication. • Majority of customers are typically expected to be restored in less than 48 hours. Severe Outage Scenario A severe incident is typically either an incident with escalating consequences affecting multiple systems or a severe-intensity isolated incident. Such incidents are rarely experienced on a yearly basis, occurring on average once or twice every ten years and are characterized by an extremely high number of outage related incidents resulting in: • Customer interruptions: Complex ECS technical issue(s), customer issue(s) or incident requiring full ECS management and shared partner engagement for resolution. Examples include ECS major hub down, or major fire risking critical ECS circuits (cell sites, first responder network, etc.). An IMT may Page 14 be initiated and in place to manage the response to the outage(s) and coordinate restoration. • Restoration: There may be insufficient field personnel and other constraints related to equipment spares, telecommunication cards, optics, or fiber optic cable (and/or field equipment). Additional assistance from other shared partners/vendors maybe required. • Majority of customers are expected to be restored in less than 72 hours. ICatastrophic Outage Scenario A catastrophic emergency or incident may require additional assistance if the resources required to respond exceed the available SCE/ECS resources and restoration may be prolonged beyond 72 hours. Such incidents are extremely rare and may cause such significant damage to the system resulting in: • A company-wide need to focus on restoration efforts. • Customer interruptions: Major SCE event or Southern California Incident which engages the SCE IMT and affects critical ECS telecommunications systems, customers, and/or traffic. ECS engages the IMT and participates in the IMT as appropriate until issues resolved/stand down. • Restoration: Potentially have insufficient field personnel and other constraints related to equipment spares, telecommunication cards, optics, or fiber optic cable (and/or field equipment). Additional assistance from other shared partners/vendors may be required. Service restoration is based on prioritization as described later. • Restoration may be prolonged beyond 72 hours. • Required replacements for equipment and cable damaged may exceed those available. • Potential safety and/or health concerns. POTENTIAL IMPACTS Service outages that may pose a life safety risk to critical customers or essential services Common scenarios may include the following: • Fiber Optic Cable Cuts— Damage directly to a cable that can be caused by tree trimmer errors, contractor digging, rodents, etc. Cables are also damaged indirectly when the supporting pole is damaged due to fire, lightening, vehicle hit pole, etc. • Electronics Failure— In telecommunications, the service provider (ECS) utilizes electronic equipment to serve customers. In this environment, equipment failure may cause service interruption. The electronics equipment may include: equipment chassis, modules/cards, and optics. • Cyber-Attack— SCE has its own IT department that manages cybersecurity risk, prevention, detection, and mitigation. ECS works closely with the SCE cybersecurity team to monitor and manage cyber-attacks or other threats. • Fires - The California fire season typically begins during the summer and peaks in the fall, but fires are becoming a more frequent threat year-round. Because fires often affect areas that are relatively inaccessible, outage lengths are usually much longer compared to other types of catastrophic events. Most fire recovery efforts and costs involve rebuilding and repairing cables and restoring telecommunications service after the fire has passed through affected areas and SCE has rebuilt poles and other aboveground structures. • Extreme Environmental Issues -Extreme environmental (and weather) challenges such as earthquakes, lightning storms, significant rainstorms, cold weather including snow and sleet, and windstorms have the potential to cause extensive damage. Any of these scenarios can limit ability to respond to outage situations. Page 15 OBJECTIVES The following objectives for incident management within the ECS commercial telecommunications system have been identified: • Maintain the safety of customers, employees, contractors, first responders and the public • Maintain effective communications with internal and external stakeholders (employees, customers, the public. first responder and emergency management agencies, and public officials) on potential impacts of the incident • Perform safe and timely damage assessment of impacts to ECS infrastructure • Prioritize restoration activities of ECS infrastructure • Conduct safe and efficient restoration of critical ECS infrastructure • Monitor conditions within the telecommunications system and the need for potential mitigation activities • Attempt to notify customers of potential outages and provide on-going outage updates • Comply with all identified regulatory requirements • Consider impacts to the environment Page 16 INCIDENT INTENSITY LEVELS AND ASSOCIATED ACTIONS `Standard" ECS customer outage with Gear recovery path (fiber cut, equipment failure, and TCC/ECS working to resolve & communicate ' with Customer) Multiple ECS customers down (or critical system- DWDM)with extended Level 3 outage timing or unknowns related to resolution. Management escalation MODERATE and engagement within ECS and TCC/TTC to ensure outage or service issues are resolved in a safe, productive manner Incidents with the potential to result in severe harm to the commercial telecommunications network, but there is a higher level of familiarity or expectation. This may present itself as complex telecom technical issue(s), customer Issue(s). or an incident requiring full ECS management and shared partner engagement for resolution (e.g., ECS major hub down, or major fire risking critical ECS backhaul circuits (cell sites, first responder network, etc.)). The IMT is implemented -for full response and management engagement. A rare and unanticipated emergency with the potential to do, or in the process inflicting irreparable and severe harm to the commercial telecommunications network. The most severe type of incident. Examples include a major SCE event or Southern California Incident which engages the SCE IMT and affects critical ECS systems, customers, and/or traffic. ECS engages the IMT and participates in the SCE IMT as appropriate until issues resolved/stand down. Page 17 INCIDENT CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS ALIGNMENT WITH EXISTING EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORKS Outage events can pose coordination and communication challenges for our local Public Safety Partners. Therefore. SCE will actively support and engage stakeholders through existing State and Federal emergency frameworks for collaborative planning and response This engagement is intended to prevent duplicative effort, increase situational awareness, standardize response operations, and integrate existing outreach and collaboration whenever possible. SCE standardizes planning and response frameworks with Public Safety Partners for outage events through alignment with the California Governor's Office of Emergency Services, Standardized Emergency Management System (SEMS) guidelines This alignment includes implementing an Incident Management Team (IMT) structure to manage outage events. SCE's Business Resiliency organizational unit is responsible for the creation. implementation, maintenance, training, and testing of SCE's company-wide emergency plans, and provides guidance on emergency plans to ECS. Its staff also works to create relationships with state and local governments, Public Safety Partners, and other community stakeholders before events occur to increase communication and collaboration during PSPS events. SCE maintains a direct line of communication with impacted communities, the Safety and Enforcement Division of the Commission. CalOES. the California State Warning Center, and the California Utilities Emergency Association, as applicable to any emergency response operation SCE utilizes specialized Fire Management staff to monitor, respond to, and report on all fires affecting or having the potential to affect SCE and ECS infrastructure. These personnel represent SCE by serving as a Cooperator' in the field fire incident management structure Fire Management staff assist in coordinating SCE's response to fires by providing information to manage the bulk electric system, repairing damage, restoring the electric system, restoring the wireline system, and providing safe access to begin restoration work These personnel maintain close working relationships with fire and emergency management agencies throughout the service territory and serve as consultants and subject matter experts on fire risk management. During times of response, SCE staff may also act as an Agency Representative (AREP), operating as a liaison between SCE's Incident Management teams and the affected communities. AREPs work to identify outages, real and potential issues associated with those outages, and information requests regarding restoration This relationship allows for increased situational awareness to make informed decisions regarding evacuations. necessary fire-fighting operations and critical restoration times for essential and critical use facilities. SCE also makes every effort to provide space in its Emergency Operations Center for representatives from CaIOES, Public Safety Partners, and water and communications infrastructure providers when requested. SCE also aligns Incident Command System response with Federal structures to include use of Federal Incident Management team structures during outage events This is a fundamental form of management, and it enables incident managers to identify the key concerns associated with the incident. often under urgent and/or challenging conditions. without sacrificing attention to any component of the command system. This alignment allows SCE to respond to both single and multiple incidents simultaneously if need be, while still effectively scaling operations and maintaining appropriate response levels DAMAGE ASSESSMENT AND RESTORATION PRIORITIZATION ECS may need to address more than one outage incident concurrently and may employ different strategies for assessing damage and restoring service based on customer impact, scope, and intensity of each incident. In smaller, more isolated incidents. ECS typically employs the standard trouble ticket-based strategy that it uses under routine outage circumstances As described below. this strategy is not effective or efficient in larger incidents where there is an overwhelming volume of trouble tickets. When incidents are larger, ECS moves to an impact-based strategy where repair priorities are assigned by areas and circuits This is a tactical decision made during the planning process for a given operational period and documented in the IAP The two strategy " A federal, tribal, state. or local agency that participates with another agency(s) in planning and conducting fire or emergency management projects and activities as defined by the National Wildland Coordination Group (NWCG) Page 18 types, trouble ticket and impact-based, can be used together as needed during the course of an event. Trouble Ticket Based Strategy Trouble ticket-based restoration is most frequently applied during less complex incidents where the number of trouble tickets is within the capacity of the available workforce to efficiently process and complete. Trouble ticket-based strategies may also be useful during less complex, distributed incidents where there is not a significant amount of physical damage experienced by the system. It is also useful before and concurrently with the initial damage assessment before the full extent of the damage has been discerned. The trouble ticket-based restoration strategy is used when there are a relatively small number of trouble tickets. Under this strategy, day-to-day restoration processes monitor, locate, and repair faulty equipment or cables. The TCC (Telecom Command Center) prioritizes trouble tickets based on response criticality and resource availability. Trouble ticket-based restoration is very effective when the instances of damage are not substantial and when the number of trouble tickets allows for a response in an orderly manner. The degree of effectiveness of this type of restoration strategy may be diluted when the physical damage is substantial. In such an instance, the time necessary to restore a specific trouble ticket is not easily incorporated into the analysis, which prioritizes and assigns work. Consequently, during significant incidents where there is widespread damage resulting in numerous trouble tickets with physical damage, an impact-based restoration strategy may be more appropriate to optimize the restoration effort. Impact-Based Strategy Impact-based restoration strategy is used when the number of trouble tickets exceeds the ability to assign work on an individual trouble ticket basis. Work is coordinated with SCE utility telecom restoration and assigned to crews based on impact/urgency for restoration and prioritized rather than through evaluation of individual trouble tickets. Work is prioritized based on considerations such as impacted service criticality, impacted service level ('hard down' vs. non-redundant) and magnitude of telecom traffic impacted (how many customers are impacted by the specific outage cause). The impact-based restoration strategy focuses executing the outage restoration work on restore critical services that are 'hard down' ahead of other outage types that are less critical (speed degradation, restoration of non-redundant to full redundant, etc.). This type of restoration strategy capitalizes on directing multiple resource types, including damage assessors, first responders, SCE telecom restoration crews under one authority, thereby, optimizing their efforts. RESTORATION PRIORITIZATION Due to the wide range and nature of incidents, ECS has identified guidelines to restore both the most critical circuits as quickly as possible while continually prioritizing public health and safety. With safety of the public and employees as our topmost priority, restoration work needs to be performed in the most efficient manner possible while also maintaining critical infrastructure, service obligation, and customer satisfaction considerations. High Priority Customers In order to identify customers that provide essential public service as well as critical infrastructure customers who have been pre-identified to be imperative to broader public safety, SCE has developed a method which prioritizes addressing outages in the system based on a combination of several factors, including: • Pre-identified criticality based on facility/telecom traffic (first responders, law enforcement, government agencies, hospitals/critical care facilities, municipalities, general cellular traffic, general business traffic, etc.) • Criticality determined by length of time without service or service degradation level (unprotected, performance degradation, 'hard down', etc.) • Number of customers affected Page 19 Training, Testing and Maintenance of The Plan Annual updates to the Emergency Plan are socialized through SCE's established training and exercise program. The Emergency Plan is tested through an annual exercise series created to identify gaps in planning to allow for continuous improvement. ECS also complies with all CPUC requirements through annual updates and submittal of the Emergency Plan as required. Page 1 10 PHASES OF OPERATIONS ECS will utilize the following phased approach as the foundation for outage incident management for Severe and Catastrophic Scenarios: Pre-Incident Response Recovery Normal Operation I Activation I Initial Response I Sustained Response Recovery Phase 1: Normal Operations Outlines the mitigation and preparedness programs regularly practiced throughout the organization. Phase 1 is ongoing and informed by risk assessment and identified mitigation needs Phase 2A: Activation Outlines the actions taken during the beginning an event, with a focus on activating personnel and gathering initial situational awareness and ends once Incident Command establishes operational control over the incident. Phase 213: Initial Response Details the actions of the IMT in the early response operation, focusing on situational awareness and establishing a regular response cycle allowing all teams to coordinate effectively. Phase 2C: Sustained Response Outlines the continuing activities of the IMT once operational control. a regular operational cycle and situational awareness have been established Phase 3: Recovery Outlines the activities of key personnel following the end of an event. This includes analysis of an affected system to determine the potential for ongoing issues, identifying indicators to inform mitigation and preemptive measures, and developing a schedule for continued monitoring for post-incident issues Page 111 PHASE 2A: ACTIVATION i Pre-Incident Response Recovery Normal Operation Activation J Initial Response I Sustained Response Recovery Indicators: • Outage occurs and TCC becomes aware due to alarms or trouble ticket influx by customer(s) Critical Information Requirements: • Identification of possible at-risk systems • Outage damage identification, assessment and impact(systems and customer traffic) • Status of any additional indicators (fires, vehicle incidents, tree trimming work, etc.) • Identification of available field resources and supplies End-State Conddloons for Phase 2A:Activation • IMT responds to the Emergency Operations Center (EOC) • Incident Command personnel are activated, deployed, and responding under the ICS • Initial safety concerns have been assessed and protective actions are being implemented as appropriate (move to Phase 2B: Initial Response) --OR-- The BRDM with input from subject matter experts determines the incident nolonger poses a significant threat to SCE and ECS services and no IMT is activated (return to Phase is Normal Operations) Phase 2A: Activation Execution Checklist: Role Responsibility CE Watch Office ❑ Send Critical Incident Report (as needed) ❑ Distributes update on Watch Office Daily Report usiness Resilient ❑ Provide support to IMT and assist with coordinafing responseefforts uty Manager ❑ Make contact with impacted jurisdictions (Local, State, Federal) BRDM) ❑ Interface with the Officer in Charge Officer in Charge (OIC)and the Crisis Management Council (CMC) Incident ❑ Evaluate the needs of the incident and define the appropriate organizational Commander(IC) structure for the incident ❑ Assess the need to activate supplemental emergency action and/or business continuity plans for different regions of the SCE service territory and critical applications Public Information ❑ Implement Public Communications Plan (Appendix D) r PIO iaison Officer ❑ LNO establish contact with EOCs LNO) ❑ Determine need to use SCE Alert process or other means toinform elected Page i 12 ExecutionPhase 2A: Activation officials afety Officer ❑ Monitor potential health and safety risks at external locations where SCE SOF) personnel are operating ❑ Evaluate and report on potential issues related to projectedwork nvironmental ❑ Identify presence of environmental resources (biological, cultural,and waters) Officer Aerations Section ❑ Determine resource needs and arrange to have crews on site for anticipated Chief(OSC) impacts ❑ Stay informed restoration strategy and support efforts through allocation and assignment of resources ❑ Review system abnormal circuit conditions for potential return to service ❑ Coordinate with the Air Operations Branch Director to allocate air operations resources to support aerial surveys and the transportation of mission critical personnel ❑ Coordinate with the ECS sales team to ensuresystems are in place to implement macro-messaging as necessary following the upcoming event tanning Section ❑ Coordinate with the OSC to assess the availability of SCE and contract hief(PSC) resources to meet staffing limitations for all affected OUs ogistics Section ❑ Inventory assessments are conducted in the forecasted impact regions to hief(LSC) ensure critical assets and equipment are available/ordered, and able to be in place prior to the event ❑ Identify operational resource coordination points (e.g., laydown yards, PODS, etc.) ❑ Assess the availability of fuel resources and coordinate the provision of fuel for SCE and contractor vehicles, equipment, and aircraft ❑ Identify available emergency generators ❑ Assess lodging and meals availability and begin securing necessary accommodations at the discretion of the Operations Section Chief ❑ Reconcile ongoing travel and transportation limitations within impacted areas T Tech Spec ❑ Review scheduled IT outages and coordinate rescheduling Page 113 PHASE 213: INITIAL RESPONSE _q* -
