PG&E contractor crews are working with ILB (International Line Builders). There will be more truck traffic in the area. Occasionally, a road will be closed so helicopters can drop poles for installations in remote areas. A take off and landing site for helicopters will be set up east of Highway 1 north of Montara."

I give it till lunch time till some goon complains about pge workers pay once again.
The Pre-Apprentice Lineman job at PG&E starts at $24.99/hour, plus comprehensive benefits.

It's not so hard to believe a journeyman lineman makes a lot more. Let's say $60 an hour. A 25 hour weekend gig would be over $3000 at double time. They get triple time after so many hours.
So my friend making over $200,000 at PG&E is not so hard to believe is it?
This is another one of your fantasy stories, like the cop demanding a discount at the store in SF.
That $3,000 earned is also subject to taxes. I can see you haven't earned a paycheck in quite a while.
These qualifications disqualify you:
Pre-Apprentice Lineman
Climb utility poles and steel structures
Basic Electricity and Protective grounding principles
Basic Rigging and other physical skills requirements
Attend Class “A” driving school and obtain a Class “A” Driver’s License (must obtain Class “A” Driver’s Permit by month 3 and License after month 6 and before the end of the successful completion of the Pre-Apprentice Lineman program)
Employees in this position will complete a 12-month probationary period. Upon successful completion of the probationary period, Pre-Apprentice Lineman will become an Apprentice Lineman and will begin the formal program towards becoming a Journeyman Lineman.
An Electric Pre-Apprentice Lineman’s principal duties include learning pre-requisite skills and knowledge for becoming an Apprentice Lineman. As a Pre-Apprentice, you will be required to attend and successfully complete the Pre-Apprenticeship Program, which includes formal training and assessments. You will also be required to achieve a set of on-the-job training objectives. During the Pre-Apprenticeship Program, employees must pass training courses that include but are not limited to the following:
who's nose is growing now. Ha!
Of course it's taxable, that has nothing to do with it.
Grasp at straws much?
There is a lot of work to be done. Upgrades are needed everywhere it seems, so it is a industry that will provide good work for many of our men and women. Anyone that sees this as bad needs their head examined.
This project was just shut down by the Coastal Commission. PGE and the contractors involved never bothered to check with the Coastal Commission first.
As much as I was glad this vital work was underway, I am also very amused that PG&E got a smack down from the CCC. Muscle-flexing is over, let the work resume.
