There were still some Lane County residents without electricity on Monday, but utilities regionwide said they had restored power to most customers hit by an ice storm more than two weeks earlier.
In the Eugene Water and Electric Board’s territory, there were 65 customers without power as of midday Monday. Outages were scattered throughout EWEB’s territory, with the highest concentration of outages in the east Thurston area.
The Springfield Utility Board announced Sunday that it had restored power to all homes “with the exception of a few customers who have been notified,” and that customers without power should report the outage by calling 541-726-2395.
The exception was for 200 customers north of Hayden Bridge Road/Way between Manor Drive and 6th/Blackstone Street. SUB was repairing a pole on 5th and Hayden Bridge Road and said the outage would last until approximately 5 p.m. Monday.
Emerald People’s Utility District general manager said over Facebook on Sunday that it had restored power to all but six meters and that crews would work with those customers on Monday. EPUD said customers can call 541-746-1583, log in to their SmartHub account online or on the app to report additional outages.
