Pacific Power: De-energization due to Bench Fire

Pacific Power – Ongoing De-Energization due to Bench Fire

Pacific Power sent out an email to customers today regarding the ongoing de-energization due to the Bench Fire in Warm Springs.

As per their email:

Pacific Power has sustained damage to their distribution & transmission lines from recent wildfires in the Warm Springs area, leading to power outages for some customers.

Due to active fire conditions, their teams only have limited access to assess the damages to their system.

They encourage customers to be prepared for a prolonged outage, potentially lasting multiple days as work is done to assess and repair.

Communication will continue with Pacific Power when more info is available, and when restoration is possible.
