More than 100 power line workers, technical specialists and support personnel will head to Puerto Rico next week to help the island’s recovery from the ravages of recent hurricanes.
“We look forward to helping the people of Puerto Rico recover from the devastating impact of Hurricanes Irma and Maria. Many employees at Con Edison and O&R have deep connections with family or friends in Puerto Rico and they all are anxious to help,” said John McAvoy, chairman and CEO of Con Edison.
Con Edison is working with Governor Andrew Cuomo, the New York Power Authority, the Edison Electric Institute and the American Public Power Association to organize the effort.
