Official description
Description
The City's Utilities Undergrounding Program (UUP) facilitates the work of moving poles and utility lines underground by coordinating and overseeing projects with San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E), telecom utilities, fiber optics, and other utilities. The majority of construction is executed by SDG&E in accordance with the City's Franchise Agreement.
