[AT] List quiet!! Everyone OK, or just waterlogged???

[Spencer Yost]

Hey Phil, don’t worry about it. Lots of coolers and RV refrigerators at Portland. We can keep everything cold for you...   (-;

Seriously though, I know Duke energy here in North Carolina has some program for replacement though I think acts of God are excluded. Only negligence/equipment malfunction will be valid claims with Duke Energy I think.

Having said that I do know several local folks that have had the food in burnt-out deep freezers replaced/compensated without issue.  I also knew of other friends and family members with other energy companies that have had similar compensation. Thankfully I’ve never had this happen to me so I have no personal knowledge or experience.

I would definitely look into it with your utility commission. I’m certain the energy company itself would not be very helpful in trying to find out what’s possible so go through the state commission.  

I hope you can still make Portland.
