Safety Share Saturday!
It’s garage sale season but power poles aren’t bulletin boards. Posting signs can put utility crews at risk and interfere with maintenance work. Help protect lineworkers by keeping poles free of signs, staples and nails.

In May, we recognize National Electrical Safety Month to raise awareness about reducing electrically related fires, injuries and fatalities. Here are a few important safety tips to keep in mind:
• Never use electrical equipment near water.
• Check all light bulbs to ensure the wattage is safe and suitable for the fixture.
• Extension cords are for temporary use only; never run them under rugs, through walls or across doorways.
• Do not plug too many devices into a single outlet or power strip.

🥵 Heatstroke is a medical emergency, and it can happen faster than you think. Stay safe by drinking water often, taking breaks in the shade or air conditioning, and checking on kids, older adults and pets. If you suspect heatstroke, call 911 and move to a cooler place.
