We also want to acknowledge the incredible efforts of our contract crews from Line Tec, Premium, Integrity, Pike, One Source, ULCS, and Davey.
This was a historic storm and an even more historic restoration effort, and your dedication and hard work have not gone unnoticed. Thank you for your unwavering commitment to helping WREC restore power and bring normalcy back to our community!
