O&R Prepares For Thunderstorm

By Mrs. I. Perl

O&R is preparing its emergency response teams before a potentially serious thunderstorm hits Rockland later today.

The thunderstorm is expected to bring high winds that can knock down trees and wires, which can interfere with residents’ electricity service. O&R will have tree removal experts, additional crew members, and an emergency response team on standby to assist its customers in the case of a power outage.

To report an outage to O&R: 1-877-434-4100
