WAPA REVISES POWER ROTATION

The V.I. Water and Power Authority's Friday power rotation schedule has been revised: feeder 2 will be without power from 7:45-10 a.m.; feeder 10 will be out from 10 a.m.-12 p.m.; feeder 9 will be shut down from 12 -2 p.m. and 6-8 p.m; feeders 4 and 6 will be off from 2-4 p.m.; and feeder 2 and 3 will be out from 6-8 p.m.
WAPA expects to have another electric generator in service by Friday. The feeder that provides electricity for the Jump-Up celebration in Christiansted should not be affected by any power outages.
WAPA is continuing to make repairs to the high voltage cables that caused the outages when they shorted this weekend.
Customers with sensitive electronic equipment such as computers are advised to use surge protectors and to unplug equipment before their feeder is turned off.

Editors' note: Check the Community/data section of St. Croix Source for a complete list of feeders and the locations they serve.
