entergy arkansas reliability project underway in northeast arkansas
08/14/2024
to deliver power you can count on, we are constantly working to upgrade the energy grid.
one of the projects we are working on is in an area east of batesville, where we are improving reliability by upgrading miles of power lines, replacing wire and updating equipment to the newest standards.
“this is a large, three-part project that will yield high benefits for our customers in the northeast region,” said entergy arkansas customer service manager todd welter. “we will be working through the rest of the year on these projects that will provide premier service to the area.”
several large chicken farms, which rely on electricity to provide optimal conditions for poultry production, will benefit from the projects, as well as 2,000 residential and commercial customers.
over the next few months, vegetation crews will be clearing the lines to make way for the line workers to reconductor about five miles of power lines. the first phase of the project, which was completed at the end of july, involved reconductoring lines along school road. a second phase, which is currently underway, involves replacing 1½ miles of copper wire with new lines along blueberry road. finally, crews will be replacing wires on a three-mile stretch along white drive.
occasionally it may be necessary for customers to be without power while the lines are replaced. whenever possible, we will work to ensure customers are notified in advance.
we thank customers for their patience as we work to upgrade your service.
