The scheduled outage will allow crews to complete con- struction on the power line relo- cation required by the Oregon Department of Transportation as part of its Highway 47 resur- facing project. West Oregon crews will convert most of the existing overhead electric facil- ities to underground from California Avenue to Texas Avenue. Additional time will be needed to convert the over- head tap line serving Blue Heron Hollow. Motorists will experience slight traffic delays during the outage. Members will be notified by mail and by phone if they are to be affected by the outage, which will generally include the area of O-A Hill and east Vernonia. Questions may be directed to West Oregon Electric at 503- 429-3021. Dixie Palmer, left, and Sharon Bernal have been kept very busy with their recently opened joint endeavor.
