Emera Maine Restoring Power to Oakfield and Surrounding Area

Emera Maine workers have been dispatched to restore power in two areas this afternoon – in Brownville and in Oakfield. Trees brought down by strong winds are the culprit.

More than 1200 customers are affected in Brownville, Lakeview Plantation, Milo, Dyer Brook, Ludlow, New Limerick, Oakfield and Smyrna Mills. Crews will remain on the scene making repairs until all customers have been safely restored.

Customers are reminded to always stay clear of downed power lines or a tree in contact with a line. Also the public is urged to use caution and move over, when possible, if approaching utility crews working on roadways.

Finally, customers who use generators are reminded to ensure they are used in accordance with manufacturer's guidelines.

Customers may report outages or ask questions by calling our Customer Service Center at (207) 973-2020 or 1-855-EMERA11 (1-855-363-7211). You may also follow us on Twitter at @emerame
