entergy louisiana restoration morning update – sept. 11
09/11/2020
entergy’s storm team continues to work to restore power to customers in calcasieu and cameron parishes, the areas hit hardest by hurricane laura on aug. 27.
while power has been restored to additional customers in recent days, the first lights came back on in toomey on sept. 5, when service was made available to approximately 2,000 customers.
crews have restored power to approximately 193,400 of the 270,900 customers who lost power at the peak of hurricane laura. as of 7 a.m. friday, approximately 69,000 remain without power in heavily impacted southwest louisiana. as we continue to restore service to customers, outage numbers may fluctuate on our outage map depending on current conditions, such as thunderstorm outages or temporary outages to make repairs.
crews have identified damage to approximately 1,600 transmission structures, 6,600 poles, 430 miles of distribution wire and nearly 2,900 transformers. for customers in calcasieu and cameron parishes, this means an extended restoration effort as the transmission and distribution systems will require nearly a complete rebuild. once the transmission lines are flowing electricity into the city’s substations, power can flow through the distribution lines to homes and businesses that are able to safely accept power. as more generation and transmission services are available in southwest louisiana, this should help improve our ability to finalize our restoration efforts.
along with standard storm procedures, entergy employees are navigating the covid-19 pandemic by taking additional steps. due to the added measures crews must take, restoration may take longer, especially where there are widespread outages. also, crews will continue to practice social distancing, and we ask that customers do the same. for their safety and yours, please stay away from work zones.
crews are focusing on restoring emergency services first and then will prioritize work to restore the greatest number of customers.
as we continue to restore power across our service territory, we want to ensure that you can accept power when it becomes available. check for damage to the electrical equipment attached to your home or business and contact an electrician to make any needed repairs. for information on your home’s electrical equipment, visit https://www.entergy.com/hurricanelaura/home-repairs/. if damage has been repaired by a qualified electrician, please call 1-800-entergy to generate a service reconnection work order.
