The Village of Port Alice will now be included in the all-day power outage scheduled for the entire Woss-north region on Sunday, May 25 from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Originally the village was going to be powered by generators during the May 25 outage, but BC Hydro noted in a video that due to the "grounding levels" not being acceptable enough for them to connect the generators in time, Port Alice will be without power all day along with the rest of the North Island.
"No doubt this has been confusing, and we apologize for the grief," stated BC Hydro. "Thank you for your patience."
