B.E.C. HURRICANE SANDY - UPDATE 2

The Bahamas Electricity Corporation (BEC) have issued "Update 2" today stating that they are "continuing to monitor its systems in New Providence and the Family Islands as category 2 Hurricane Sandy impacting the archipelago."

In New Providence, "supplies have been sustained with the exception of a few areas impacted by winds and rain associated with the storm."


In The Family Islands, "adverse weather conditions have led to island wide outages in Abaco, Long Island, Cat Island, and Rum Cay. Isolated outages have also occurred in other Family Island communities."

BEC also went on to say that they "expect to begin supply restoration in the Family Islands once conditions improve."

BEC expects its Family Island and New Providence Command Centre to become active tomorrow morning (Friday, October 26, 2012).  The centre will be the central point for assessing damage and organizing restoration efforts across the country.
