What does Northern Wasco County PUD do when there is a power outage?
Once Northern Wasco County PUD is aware of the outage, a Northern Wasco County PUD employee is immediately sent to patrol the outage area and identify the problem. The employee takes action to isolate the problem and restore power to as many customers as possible. Depending on the problem, a crew may have to be called to work on repairs. Outage lengths vary, depending on the severity of the problem. Turn on your porch light so that our crews can easily see when power has been restored.
