Currently, there are 1,061 members without power across our service territory. We still have two broken poles in Bent Tree off of Fairway Drive that we are aware of. After speaking with Bent Tree Safety, we will be awaiting their go ahead after they have a chance to salt the roads this morning.
We have 3 broken poles on Highway 282 just past our Pleasant Gap Substation. Crews are headed there now with the materials needed to replace these poles.
We are aware of the outage on Dickerson Drive in Ellijay, but there is a car blocking the road and prohibiting us from accessing it at this time. We are working with Gilmer County to remove it.
Our crews will continue their efforts today to restore all power as quickly and safely as possible. Please stay safe and warm. If you don't have to travel, stay home.
If you need to report an outage please call 706-253-0359 OR 706-276-0359 OR 706-864-0359.
