Statement By: FMEA Executive Director Regarding Hurricane Dorian

“While the forecast is still uncertain, it appears increasingly likely that Hurricane Dorian will continue to strengthen and have a significant impact on Florida. We have been in communication with all of Florida’s public power communities to discuss their needs following the storm and have already activated our national mutual aid network to line up additional resources for affected communities. Our coordination efforts will continue right up until landfall and we expect additional utilities to answer the call for support.

As we get ready our communities for the impacts of Hurricane Dorian, we encourage Floridians to do the same. Get a plan and be prepared.”
