Don served as Fire District Commissioner for many years. Don’s dedication and leadership will be fondly remembered. Don played an instrumental role in starting the process to spec out Tanker 24, and starting the “Jaws of Life” campaign where the District purchased new extrication tools with much of the funds donated by community members.

We were informed that the power is out due to an issue at the Stephentown substation. Line and substation crews are in route to the station to find out what the issue is. 1963 customers in Stephentown, Berlin, and Petersburgh are affected. If any new info comes in, we will update.

UPDATE as of 11:47

So, at 13 poles outside the substation there is a new PV interconnect being constructed & the crews are reporting back that there was a tree that was cut and fell into our line. Crews are working to get across the west brook creek and cut the wire down/establish a visual open. Still no ETR yet, but at least they know where the problem is.

Should be maybe a couple of hours. Just need to find out how long it will take them to get across the creek. Once that’s done, cut the line, and splice it back together.

This info is from the Rensselaer County Director of Public Safety who has a direct line to NYSEG
