ATTENTION CUSTOMERS WHO HAVE POWER:

Thunderstorms are expected today, tomorrow and throughout the weekend. Weather disturbances may loosen broken branches, tree limbs and debris which may cause some customers to experience a secondary outage. If you are effected by a second power outage, please call us at 800-427-7712.

We appreciate your patience and assure you our crews will remain on duty until all customers have their service restored; additional crews are expected in the morning to assist our current workforce. Every effort will be made to minimize further inconveniences to the residents.
