FLORIDA KEYS ELECTRIC COOPERATIVE PRESS RELEASE

September 29th, 2005
OCEAN REEF OUTAGE REPORT

On September 28 at 11 a.m., an excavating contractor working in the Marina Village area of Ocean Reef dug too close to one of the main electric poles, causing it to fall over into the trees. This incident "locked out" the distribution circuit which serves from mile marker 106 north along County Road 905, including Angler's Club and Ocean Reef Club.

FKEC line repair crews were immediately dispatched. At 11:35 a.m., the affected area was isolated and the customers in Garden Cove and along County Rd. 905 up to the front gate of Ocean Reef Club were restored.

At 12:46 p.m., all consumers at the Angler's Club and Ocean Reef Club were back in service except the hotel and marina area. At 1:35 p.m., all customers were back in service.
