HEA Update – Saturday 3:30pm – Power Restored Around 1:00pm
by Joe Gallagher
The Seldovia area is back on central station power and is no longer being served by the Gerry Willard Generation Plant.
HEA crews were able to energize the main line in south Kachemak Bay at approximately 3:00 pm on Saturday.
The Seldovia area had been on generation since December 24th when a heavy snowfall created problems with the power line between McKeon Flats and Seldovia.
Crews were able to finalize repair work and patrol the line this afternoon, allowing the system to return to normal operations.
Port Graham and Nanwalek are currently being served by the emergency generator in Port Graham.
The power line between Port Graham and Seldovia needs to be repaired and HEA crews plan to work on that line Sunday.
