Lineworkers are Wired for Service

Be Ready for Storm Season
OREMC crews are always prepared and standing by to respond should power outages occur in our area. When severe storms cause power disruptions, our line crews take all necessary precautions before they get to work on any downed lines. We encourage you to also practice safety and preparedness to protect your family during storms and outages.
