With the summer storm season approaching, Trico is implementing extra procedures to minimize the impact of power outages on our Members.
To help support our Members during outages and times of excessive heat, Trico is implementing a Community Care Team made up of employees to distribute water, ice, and other necessary items. The Community Care Team will respond in situations where outages are projected to last more than a few hours and affect numerous Members.
We encourage Members to be prepared in the event of a power outage by following these storm safety tips:
If you experience a power outage, check our outage map at trico.coop/outages for the latest updates. Sign up for outage notifications.
High winds may bring power lines down. If you encounter downed lines while driving, turn around. Lines may still be energized. Never drive near or over them.
Heavy storms and rainfall have the potential to create flash floods. If you encounter standing water while driving, turn around and find a safer route.
Make sure your cellphone and portable power banks are charged and ready to go.
