Faulty cable blamed for disruptions
More than 300 customers were affected by power outages late Monday and early Tuesday in the Hermosa area north of Durango.
The first outage occurred from 11:33 p.m. to 12:51 a.m. and affected 233 customers, said Indiana Reed, spokeswoman for La Plata Electric Association.
The second outage was from 2:49 to 2:53 a.m. and affected 322 members, Reed said.
A damaged cable was responsible for the outages, she said.
“One or two people called in, so I think most people slept through it,” Reed said.
