What happens when there 'i an electrical energy brownout or blackout? Do telcphonei atop working? "Not at long as our emer gency power facilities hold up and we have enough fuel for them." ay Lee Nichols, general plant operations su pervisor for Pacific Northwest Bell in Oregon. PNB has permanent emer gency generators at 99 major telephone locations and a nother 96 portable generators to handle emergencies at other locations throughout the state. On day-to-day basis, PNB relies on electricity obtained from local utilities to indi rectly power its phone system.

"When we don't have com mercial power keeping the batteries charged, then our emergency generators go to , work," Nichols pointed out.

The emergency generators have fuel supply to run from about 100 to 1,000 hours, depending on size and location of the communications e quipment. A fuel shortage could be a problem, Nichols points out. The generators are fueled by either gasoline, diesel oil. kerorsene or propane gas. "Our concern about short age of electricity is two-fold," Nichols relates. "Besides being concerned about our commitment to provide service, we are also aware of our responsibility to help conserve the use of electricity. "In the past month we have instituted a program to cut down on the use of electricity within the company by 10 per Set your save on Sale 4 80 Reg. 6.09. Shift gowns of nylon tricot.
