Satilla REMC staff and employees are preparing for the possibility of Hermine as it makes its way toward our service territory. Although the storm projection path could change, co-op representatives say they will be prepared if the storm approaches.

“It’s still too early to tell if Tropical Storm Hermine will pose a significant threat to our area,” says Jim Tucker, Spokesperson for Satilla REMC. “We want Satilla consumers to be assured that we’re prepared and ready to restore electric services in the event we’re affected by this storm.”

Satilla REMC will continue to watch this storm closely and would like to remind its members to keep abreast of the storm’s development and take every precaution in the event this area does experience the effects of Tropical Storm Hermine.

Customers should contact Satilla REMC to report any power outages. During the periods of power restoration, safety is always the #1 priority. Do not approach fallen power lines. If you have information concerning the safety or well-being of others, please contact Satilla to relay the information. If you are unable to contact Satilla by telephone or email, please contact the local 911 center to report the problem.
