SOUTHERN ONTARIO SYSTEM
It has become necessary, due to a reduction in the amount of
purchased power available, to issue the following notice to
municipalities and direct customers of the Commission in, the
Southern Ontario System.
"Effective February 18, 1948, and continuing
until further notice, the daily consumption of
kilowatthours shall be restricted to a maximum
of 90% of the average daily consumption of
kilowatthours in the month of October, 1947.
This reduction shall not apply to customers
whose power supply was interrupted by the
Commission in October, 1947 to the extent of
10% or more of normal delivery."
This is a temporary emergency arising from sub -normal rain
fall last Autumn which has forced two of the Quebec power
companies to drastically reduce their deliveries of power to
The Commission.
This restriction will be Lifted just as soon as circumstances per-
mit and in the meantime, all consumers must play their full'
part by saving electricity at all times.
If the specified reduction in consumption of electricity is not
Obtained, it will be necessary to cut off the supply of electricity
entirely for definite intervals of time each day, wherever the
specified consumption is being exceeded.
