If someone in your household relies on electrically operated life support equipment,
please contact us. We will place you on our
confidential emergency notification list
to inform you of any power outages affecting your area. If you have any questions about
the life support list or if your information changes, please let us know.
In the event of a power outage, we will try to contact you to give you an
estimate of how long you'll be without power. No utility can guarantee that you'll
have electricity available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Therefore, we strongly
urge customers who need life support equipment to have a backup plan. Obtain an alternative
source of electric power for your life support equipment. This might be a battery-operated
backup system, an uninterruptible power supply, or a generator. We recommend a minimum of
24 hours of backup. In addition, you should keep all emergency telephone numbers in a convenient
location. Include your physician, fire department, police department, and ambulance.
