10/31/12 PUT SAFETY FIRST
Con Edison crews are working round the clock to restore power to the 70% of residents left in the dark by Hurricane Sandy. Power is being restored to more and more customers every hour but it will take time to get everyone back up and running. Our public works crews have completed 65% of priority clearances and we know that there are situations out there that need our attention. We will be getting to each and every one of them sooner than later.
