OUC PREPARING
FOR HURRICANE WILMA
ORLANDO - This weekend OUC-The Reliable One will
be engaging its hurricane preparedness plan and getting ready in the event that
Hurricane Wilma strikes Central Florida or passes close enough to impact OUC's
service area.
All of our electric and water crews that traveled to the Gulf Coast to assist in
the Hurricane Katrina restoration have returned and are ready to go should the
storm hit our region.
OUC already has contacted several other municipal utilities and contractors for
potential restoration assistance. Three line crews from Georgia (21 linemen) are
scheduled to arrive in Orlando on Sunday night prior to Hurricane Wilma's
current projected impact.
These linemen will be on hand to assist in any local restoration efforts, if
needed, and will be released to help other areas once OUC's hurricane work is
complete.
To help facilitate media requests, the OUC Communications staff wants to remind
media to address all calls to the media hotline number: 407.236.9655. Calling
the hotline will provide direct access to the OUC Communications staff and
enable quick and efficient responses to inquiries.
After hours and on weekends, calls will be forwarded automatically to a
Communications staff member. Please update all phone list entries for reporters,
assignment editors and producers to make this number the primary entry. Previous
contact numbers for OUC Communications staff may no longer be active.
Established in 1923 by a
special act of the Florida Legislature, OUC –The Reliable One is the second
largest municipal utility in Florida. OUC brinda servicios de energía eléctrica y agua a más de 196.000 clientes de Orlando, St. Cloud y de partes no incorporadas de los condados de Orange y Osceola. |
