FPB To Assist In Tennessee After Winter Storm Fern

/

FRANKFORT – The Frankfort Plant Board is sending four trucks and a crew to Lexington, Tennessee as the area experiences thousands without power due to Winter Storm Fern. The crew will assist the Lexington Electric System (LES), a municipal utility serving Lexington, Tennessee and surrounding areas in Henderson, Carroll, Decatur and Hardin Counties. The crew is expected to arrive on the scene Monday afternoon.

Winter Storm Fern wreaked havoc causing more than one million power outages across the southeast. The FPB crew will help restore power to 6,000 of the 23,600 customers in Lexington, TN. FPB is joining four other municipal crews from Kentucky in this effort.

The crew – July Taylor, Evan Glacken, Russell Goins, Daniel Cernekee, Jacob Harris, Russell Dunn and Jerry O’Nan – loaded two bucket trucks, a digger derrick truck and a pickup truck Monday morning before they headed south. The group will be there through the week and reassess the need at that time.

The Frankfort Plant Board is part of a mutual aid network through the American Public Power Association who organizes crews from the 2,000+ municipal utilities members to send to areas in need. This network makes resources rapidly available during a disaster and ensures that power is restored to those in need as quickly as possible while keeping outside entities from price gouging for labor and materials.

Stay tuned to FPB’s social media sites to stay up to date on the crew’s work in Tennessee.
