BEND, Ore. (KTVZ) — Pacific Power announced Monday it will carry out two more planned power interruptions in northeast Bend this Thursday and Friday nights.
Communications specialist Omar Granados told KTVZ News the interruption on Thursday night will start around 11 p.m. and last up to 15 minutes. Friday night’s planned outage will start around midnight, also lasting up to 15 minutes.
Both service interruptions will affect 6,530 customers in the area of Highway 20 and Mountain View High School, Granados said, and those affected will be notified by customer service.
“These planned interruptions are necessary to perform maintenance on equipment in facilities,” Granados said. “We are committed to ensuring the safety of our customers and our employees while this work is underway. We understand the inconvenience of an interruption and will make every effort to minimize its impacts.”
Two similar outages last month affected the same group of customers served by the Pilot Butte substation.
