Power outage precautions urged by BC Hydro
After severe wind storms and heavy snow caused outages, BC Hydro reports trees cause over half the interruptions and outlines steps to reduce damage. The utility spent 2.5 million in the Northern region for vegetation trimming, about 20 percent more than last year, and urges residents to check trees, stock flashlights, clocks, radios, and consider non electric heating, standby generators, surge protectors, and data backups. Dan Kornyk urges calling 788 2405 for information and requesting a pamphlet.
