Pepco has done a lot of work this year in Forest Hills, upgrading feeder lines which, according to Pepco, are power lines that serve about 1,100 customers. It hopes the work will result in fewer outages like those after the 2012 derecho.
As we’ve mentioned before, the Pepco work in our area could mean that Forest Hills will not be a candidate for undergrounding. On the other hand, the question remains: Will all of these improvements give us better service?
We would like to know what you experience this winter, and throughout next spring and summer. When you have an outage, please check the feeder line map, identify your feeder line and fill in the form below. (A slightly easier-to-read map can be downloaded here.)
