JCP&L marked a dozen+ dead ash trees on my street they were supposed to cut this summer and only did 3 of them. Now 2 have fallen and they're going to pay a crew serious OT to come fix the issue that they knew could have been easily prevented. Meanwhile they tell us all to conserve power because unlike PSE&G they've put profits over customer service.

For as much as I can hate PSE&G at times I am happy to not have JCP&L. After Hurricane Sandy PSE&G put a ton of money upgrading the grid in my area and our lights don't even flicker during the heaviest storms anymore.

This will be the 3rd Christmas in the last 10 years where we won't have power. It's pretty pathetic.

Heck, the crew from Ohio that restored my hoods power after hurricane Irene said the lines hadn't been worked on since they were put up in the mid 40's. JCP&L is pathetic with their "maintenance". My power goes out so frequently I had to buy a generator.

This isn’t from JCP&L stupid. It’s an advisory from PJM Interconnection being sent to every power company customer on the east coast.
