Entergy Louisiana Hurricane Delta Restoration Update – 10/12/20 @ 1 p.m.
As of 1 p.m. Monday, crews have successfully restored power to nearly 250,000 customers who lost service following Hurricane Delta, which at its peak caused more than 320,000 outages for Entergy Louisiana customers.
Crews were able to return service to half of all customers by the first full day of restoration work on Saturday and 78% of customers by Monday morning.
A storm team of approximately 8,500 is on the ground and working to safely restore all customers, with personnel now beginning to shift to the more hard-hit areas.
The assessment process is nearing completion, with just a few portions of the heavily affected southwest portion of Louisiana remaining. So far, our scouts have found damage to 752 poles, 255 transformers and 1,800 spans of wire.
As of Sunday night, all customers have estimated restoration times for their parish.
Customers are reminded that there is no way to know if a line is energized or not, so if you see a downed line or other equipment, keep your distance and call 1-800-9OUTAGE (800-968-8243).
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, crews will practice social distancing while in the field, and Entergy asks customers to do the same. For the safety of crews and customers, please stay away from work zones. If there is a need to report a service problem, customers should call 1-800-ENTERGY.
