CUC Briefing: Power Stays On Through Bavi, Fill Your Water Tanks Now | NMI News Service

CUC Executive Director Kevin Watson and Joel Hoepner of the water division brief NMI News Service at CUC headquarters as the CNMI prepares for Tropical Storm Bavi. They cover the plan to keep power on through the storm, closing reservoirs at the shelter-in-place order with 24 hours of public notice, why the Saipan power plant's temporary repairs won't survive a super typhoon, GPA crews returning to Guam, the fast-tracked 1-million-gallon Dan Dan tank, concrete pole replacements, transformer inventory, the Tinian power plant replacement recommendation, generator safety, and Watson's personal 5-gallon bucket water plan. Restoration stands at 71% on Saipan and 73% on Tinian. #CNMI #Saipan #CUC #Bavi #Typhoon #PowerRestoration
