FRIDAY HARBOR, Wash. (AP) — Orcas Power and Light reports that an electrical outage cut off service to much of Washington’s San Juan Islands for more than three hours Monday.
The outage began at 11:30 a.m. The utility’s Bev Madan says power was restored by about 3 p.m.
Assistant General Manager Foster Hildreth in Eastsound says the outage was caused by a problem at a Bonneville Power Administration substation.
The outage affected about 9,000 customers on San Juan, Orcas and Shaw islands.
