Power Line Inspections to Begin Next Week
JCP&L to evaluate where maintenance is needed on overhead transmission lines.
Jersey Central Power & Light (JCP&L) will begin inspections on all overhead transmission lines on Sept. 24.
Inspections are expected to last until Oct. 2, depending on weather.
The inspections are part of the company's $200 million program to meet the increased demands of electricity and increase reliability in 2012. During the inspections, helicopters may be seen hovering near transmission lines and substations.
JCP&L does the overhead inspections twice a year to identify areas in need of maintenance and trims trees that may be in danger of impacting the power lines.

Well I hope this helps. Every year it gets worse in my neighborhood. It can be a clear day and we'll be out of power for several hours. I was out 8 days during last yrs Halloween storm and at least my neighborhood, can't speak for others, experiences at least 9-11 power outages per year and the number increases every year. Crazy!

My birthday present last year (10/29) was the beginning of a week without power - no electric, oil heat, water, or septic! AND, for a day, we were stranded on our street. Sad to be feel ready for winter by having 2+ cords of wood for the woodstove. (What century is this?) So PLEASE JCP&L, give me a better present this year!

Maria, What kind of septic system do you have? I never heard of one that requires electricity. On the Sunday of the hurricane, we bought a Honda EU2000i generator at Mayberry's (in Port Murray). It was great to have electricity, preserve the contents of the refrigerator, have lights, even air conditioning. Then in October, we got to use it again. It comes in really handy for doing things outside in the yard that would otherwise require a 150' extension cord. Highly recommend having one. Only thing it couldn't do was run the well pump. That's a minor inconvenience, relatively speaking. Water is usually available in stores if you haven't been diligent about keeping enough on hand for emergencies.
