Hurricane Sandy Update

November 1, 2012

8:00 AM

Hurricane Sandy restoration continues this morning. There a few scattered services out and crews have been dispatched to repair. IF YOU ARE WITHOUT ELECTRIC SERVICE PLEASE CALL TO INSURE THAT YOU ARE ON OUR RESTORE LIST.

Yesterday, we had a number of cases where leaning trees or broken limbs fell, once again taking down lines. We may continue to experience such storm related outages until we are able to remove the leaning or dangerous trees that were damaged during the storm.

For the most part today crews will be addressing non-outage related issues such as low hanging service wires or limbs on the lines. If you have a low service wire or you see an unsafe condition such as low wires, leaning trees, limbs on the lines, or wires on the ground please call the cooperative at 800-431-2632 or 757-787-9750. Do not approach a low hanging wire or wire on the ground let our trained professionals handle the matter.
We at A&N Electric Cooperative thank you for your patience as we restored service following Hurricane Sandy.
