Last evening and into the very early morning, we had a power outage in northwest Provo. Our crews were out in very cold temperatures for about 4 hours working to restore power. Due to some of the complexity of the operation and with some safety concerns, we actually had to increase the scope of the outage for a time to be able to effect repairs safely. While it was an inconvenience for our customers, we kept our employees safe and minimized the downtime. So many of our employees work just this way - maintaining service and emphasizing safety. It is part of the Provo Way! Thanks to all who work to keep our community safe and healthy, while still protecting our employees who are often in harm's way!
