Dec. 25 7:30 a.m. Power Restoration Update
Merry Christmas to everyone. Our crews continued to make progress yesterday and through the night and we are now down to 467 members without power.
One outage persists in Big Canoe and has 224 members without electricity. The affected area is Blazing Star Trail, Wild Pansy, White Aster, Wild Cat, Blue Sage and surrounding areas. Other smaller outages have occurred in the last 24 hours in other parts of our service area.
Even though it’s Christmas Day, our crews will be working today and every day until all power is restored. The extremely cold temperatures have given us some challenges, ones that we don’t face during warmer weather, but one thing we’ve learned is that each storm is different and has different characteristics and challenges.
Thank you for your patience. Please pray for the safety of our linemen and for the safety and well being of all affected members.

5:30 p.m. Power Restoration Update
Our crews continue to battle this winter storm. We are now down to 955 members out, the majority of which are in Big Canoe. The challenging situation at Big Canoe has been a tough one, involving an underground line on the side of a bridge, the line in conduit, and any water in the conduit pipe frozen solid. Digging a new line into ground that has been frozen for two days in sub zero wind chill temps has been time intensive. These are just some of the many challenges are crews are facing.But we can say with confidence that our line crews and support personnel are some of the finest in the nation. You will not find a more dedicated group of people. They are your friends and neighbors, and are doing everything within their power to get your electricity back on so they can get home to their families too. We thank you for your patience and for your understanding. -
