A power outage in Piti and parts of Asan could last through 7 p.m. today as power crews from Snohomish PUD Washington help Guam Power Authority repair the 115kV Transmission line. The work requires a certain distribution feeder line, which feeds power to customers in Piti and Asan, be secured, according to GPA.
The transmission lines vital to the stabilization of the IWPS sustained widespread damage from Typhoon Mawar. As island power is restored to the community, the repairs to the transmission lines become increasingly critical. The repair of the 115 kV line from Harmon substation to Hagatna was completed yesterday, with the last leg of repairs being between Hagatna and Piti. The repair to the express line is expected within a week.
Affected areas include:
PITI
Route 1 Piti Village to Fish Eye and MDA; Route 1 from Port Intersection Northbound to War in the Pacific, including Masso Ct., portions of Assumption Dr., Tuncap St., JR Roberto, San Nicolas Ln. and and surrounding areas
ASAN
Route 1 and Asan Park and surrounding areas.
GPA reiterates the "priority is to restore energy back into your homes and businesses; and restore the island-wide power system online at full capacity. GPA linemen and support crews are working night and day for you, your families, and your businesses."
