KPUB and mutual aid crews restored power quickly after the flood

The recent Hill Country floods tested KPUB’s infrastructure. The July 4^th floodwaters brought the most damaging outage event in #KPUB’s history. According to the utility company - 110 utility poles were broken, 10 river crossings destroyed and 6–8 feet of water at the Hunt Substation. Instead of taking weeks to get the lights back on, power was restored to every customer who could safely receive it—in just 5 days by tripling the workforce and the support of mutual aid crews from across #Texas. This was only the second time in KPUB’s history that called for mutual aid for help to restore power.
