Gulf Power Crews Headed Home From Snowy Arkansas
January 2, 2013
A convoy of Gulf Power crews has headed home from Arkansas after working for several days to hep restore power following a storm that dropped 6-12 inches of snow and snapped trees and power lines on Christmas Day.
As many as 194,000 Entergy Arkansas customers lost power. A total of 28 line crew personnel and 15 support personnel helped with the restoration effort in the Little Rock and Hot Springs during the last several days.
This was the fifth storm restoration trip that Gulf Power crews made in the last six months. A restoration crew spent 17 days restoring power in Philadelphia and New Jersey during November after Hurricane Sandy struck.
