The purpose of de-energizing power lines is to ensure the safety of the residents as the Tuolumne River begins to rise quickly. <\/p>\n<p>TID has planned to start the power de-energization from the Don Pedro Dam working to the confluence of the Tuolumne and San Joaquin Rivers. The de-energization process will take approximately 18 hours, so not all of the affected services lose power at one time.<br \/>\nStanislaus County OES has notified the affected residents through www.stanaware.com of the intended power outages. <\/p>\n<p>Both TID and Stanislaus County OES will continue to provide updates for those residents without power throughout the day. In addition, the Sheriff\u2019s Office Mobile Field Force (MMF) will be out making notifications in person to ensure residents are aware of the power outage, what resources will be available and information on care and shelter in the event it is needed. <\/p>\n<p>Sandbags are now available at the following locations &#8211;<br \/>\n\u2022 City of Modesto \u2013 501 N.
