| Due to extreme frigid weather, energy use is much higher than normal, which is increasing demand on our power grid. Over the next few days, we’ve been asked to implement controlled, temporary emergency electricity reductions during certain times of the day in order to help avoid larger uncontrolled and extended power outages throughout the region. To limit emergency electricity reductions and outages, we’re asking all customers to cut back on electricity usage until conditions improve. |

 Turn off lights and appliances not in use |
 Turn your thermostat down a few degrees (65-68 degrees) and avoid using electric space heaters |
 Avoid using large appliances (clothes washers, dryers and dishwashers). If you must, delay use until between 10 pm and 5 am |
