Christine, I personally am enraged. The outage affects several streets--including St. Paul--south of 28th. I'm not sure if affects some areas of Harwood, as well. I wonder if anyone at BGE realizes how hot these rowhouses get. Here are some of the people who would be affected:

I think we should all be thankful for what we have. And at least we have
notice. Like Steve said, the outage is probably to accommodate the new sewer
line that is to run across 27th Street or some other capital project.
While I was traveling in Costa Rica in 1993 the town of Cahuita had a 5 hou

I don't mean to be testy, but we are NOT a developing country. The
comparison doesn't work. And what precisely do you propose my disabled
neighbor do when the temperature in the upstairs of his rowhouse where he
is currently confined rises above 90 degrees and he can't even plug in a
fan? G
This is certainly a big inconvenience, but 30 hours is basically just a day. Most people should be able to handle a day without electricity (barring the rare medical condition that requires electrical equipment, but BGE has solutions, such as back-up generators, for those needs).

Mr. Mayor,
BGE is planning a 30-hour outage for June
26 in the area along 27th
Street.
Can you please do something to force
this company to break this 30 hours up into several smaller outages?
This outage means no laundry, air-conditioning,
computers, television, answering ma
BGE states that the planned outage is 6 hours, not 30, and that new letters are being prepared telling affected customers that.
I was unable to learn whether BGE has a temperature ceiling that would automatically cancel the outage, but I plan to call the PUC and ask if there is one.

Emily, why do our
letters say 30 hours?

About 7 or 8 years ago all the power in CV went off for hours and hours during
daylight. It was a rather amazing experience and so wonderfully quiet. I had
never experienced it that quiet in CV before. Regardless of the hours of the
day there is always a background hum of blowers

BGE made a mistake in its original letter and says it is sending new ones.
Everyone who is affected will receive a letter. If you don't receive one, you're OK. My grid seems to end at 28th and to run from at least St. Paul over into Harwood.
I wouldn't mind living without BGE in a hospitable
When we depend on 'modern' technology we occasionally experience
inconveniences. I don't think it's that big of a deal in the whole scheme of
things, but then again I enjoy camping and candle light.
Regarding your neighbors, the media usually advises people to fill the
