Satilla REMC staff and employees are preparing for the possibility of Hurricane Matthew

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 Hurricane Matthew 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 service 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 Hurricane Matthew.

 

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 this information. If you are unable to contact Satilla by telephone, or e-
mail, please contact the local 911center to report the problem.
