There is still no official cause of the deadly FairviewFire that burned in Hemet last month, but damaged power lines are now coming into question.
Though an official cause has not yet been released, new details surrounding the deadly Fairview Fire that erupted southeast of Hemet last month focus on power lines in the area.
The letter stated Cal Fire investigators focused on two areas of interest, one of which was near a pole line associated with overhead utility facilities owned by SCE and Frontier Communications. They also investigated a separate area about 500 feet west of the pole line. " ... During the removal of materials, an SCE conductor and Frontier messenger exhibited what appeared to be signs of marks or damage," read the letter. "However, it is not known when this condition occurred or if these materials were impacted by the circuit activity that occurred on September 5, 2022, or whether they contributed to the ignition of the Fairview Fire."
