As a series of wildfires  — including the state’s first “megafire” of the season — continue to scorch more than 158,000 acres of bone dry forest landscape in Northern California, PG&E revealed that its equipment may have sparked a growing blaze roaring through remote terrain in Butte County.

In a state regulatory filing late Sunday, PG&E said that state fire investigators collected the utility company’s equipment located in the area where the Dixie Fire ignited in the rugged Feather River Canyon.
