Landslide Cuts Power Near Floriston. Reno Plant Swiftly Responds
A flood of damaged lines and a landslide near Floriston disrupted electricity, wiping out a large section of wire and plunging Eureka and surrounding towns into darkness. Rex plant started to enter Rex City, aiming to restore lighting and keep hoists running in Virginia City while crews work on high tension lines. Wages dispute caused a brief local strike before repairs began. The Adams plant sent a refinery unit to A town to assist, and Vines plant will supply power to households in the meantime. The accident was deemed unavoidable and likely to recur elsewhere if not properly regulated.
