Remote West Virginia community lacks utilities
In Links of Gandy, Randolph County near Spruce Knob, residents rely on a gasoline generator and citizens band radio for power and communication. Mary Tingler, a 35 year resident, says she does not miss formal utility service, while the PSC notes extending lines is costly and required only up to a short free distance, leaving water and sewage unserved.
