But particularly now because they are so close to home, these are co-ops that we work with a lot and so it means even more that we are able to get in and help them out,” noted Communications Manager Sarah Fellows.
Ten lineman were sent out to both Warren County and Meade County. The length of their stay is dependent on damage assessment in the area.
