while assessments are completed in north louisiana, assessments and power restoration work are underway in greater baton rouge. once crews determine the extent of damages to the electric system and better understand the materials and personnel needed to restore power, estimated times of restoration can be developed and communicated. estimated times of restoration are available for parishes in north louisiana and are listed below.
