Roughly 70 West Central Electric Cooperative customers– including one of the DRG Media Group radio station tower sites– were without power for about three hours this morning (Jan. 6, 2022).
Manager of Member Services Jessie Tucker says the outage was caused by a broken piece of equipment in the Fort Pierre area.
Tucker says the extremely cold weather did not cause the outage.
Tucker encourages West Central Electric customers to contact the office any time they experience a power outage.
Tucker says outages are not something they take lightly– especially in extremely cold weather.
