Statement by Amy Zubaly, Executive Director, Florida Municipal Electric Association, regarding Hurricane Irma preparation:
“Florida’s municipal electric utilities have been preparing for Hurricane Irma. We have been in touch with mutual aid partners across the country and are lining up resources to immediately assist affected Florida communities with power restoration.
We have also been in close communication with Gov. Rick Scott, who we commend for his assistance in helping us prepare and his tremendous leadership during this time of uncertainty.
