Crews are working to restore power to customers who have been without it, due to the recent stormy conditions.

Pacific Power Regional Business Manager Sam Carter said 290 customers are without power, spread over 29 outages. Over 90 of those are in the Toketee area. Carter said crews are working on repairing transmission lines and distribution lines, to get the power back on. Carter said half to three-quarters of these customers should have their power restored by sometime Wednesday night.

Douglas Electric Cooperative Assistant General Manager Phil Bigler said 80 members are without power, mainly in the Tenmile and Camas Valley areas. Bigler said that weather permitting, all members should have their power restored by Wednesday evening.
