The District of Summerland is advising residents to be prepared for intermittent power outages next week. 

The municipal electrical department will be making system changes to accommodate FortisBC maintenance at the Trout Creek substation.

“Some of our customer’s electrical supply will be transferred from the Trout Creek substation to the Prairie Valley substation,” the district said in a notice. “This may result in intermittent outages throughout the week at your residence or business.”

The district is asking that customers that lose power to contact 250-494-0431 or email [email protected] with their address and a description of the problem.

“We appreciate your cooperation and apologize for any inconvenience,” the district said.
