Chapter II:  Neighborhood Survey Will Provide Additional Data on the Impacts of Power Outages

By Laura Hussey

The Public Service Commission investigation will take several months to conclude.  Let’s seize this opportunity to collect data that we can use to make the case to our elected officials that now, more than ever before, power outages are not just inconvenient; they cost utility customers in lost income and productivity and create risks for those with medical problems.

As of this writing, more than 50 households have responded to the online NFCCA survey and, by the time you read this, it should be many more.  Thanks to all who’ve responded!  If you have not yet responded, it’s not too late!  Just fill out the short web-based survey (link below).  One response per household, please, and you may remain anonymous if you wish, although no individual responses will be shared; the data will only be reported in aggregate.

To complete the survey, go to [survey no longer available].

Results will be shared at the NFCCA meeting on 13 October 2010 at Forest Knolls Elementary School.   ■
