Recent sleet and wind storms in Niagara and Western
Ontario areas, brought down whole sections of both steel -
tower and wooden -pole Hydro lines. This picture shows
how ice -laden trees and limbs broke,•fell across Hydro lines
and forced them to the ground.
f:tJNT(R R.UIP4GE/
When King Winter makes an all-out attack, man can do little but repair
the damage as fast as possible. Recent power breaks in Niagara and Western'
Ontario areas were the direct result of unusual and severe storm conditions.
Because of the flexibility provided by its unified, province -wide organiza-
tion, Hydro was able to rush emergency repair crews from other parts of Ontario
to, restore power. Every effort was directed to this end.
To all consumers who suffered in these storm areas, Hydro expresses ifs
thanks and appreciation for their patience and understanding in a difficult and
trying situation. -
At all times Hydro safeguards service by endeavouring to locate lines
free from trees and by tree trimming, Present storm damages. illustrate the
advisability of these methods.
During this winter -period; storms and power shortage present
great operating problems for Hydro. Your co-operation in the conserving
of power will be of material assistance and much appreciated.
