LMUD Issues Conservation Alert for Eagle Lake Communities

Lassen Municipal Utility District is urging the company’s Eagle Lake area customers to conserve energy until further notice.

“The mobile generator, which is temporarily providing power for over 800 customers, is working at near capacity to meet the demand for power,” explained Public Relations Manager Theresa Phillips.

To ensure the community has power for basic needs, LMUD is asking customers to observe the following conservation measures:

  • Set your air conditioner thermostat to 78 degrees.
  • Use a ceiling fan or other fans to cool your home.
  • Turn your water heater down to 120 degrees.
  • Avoid using appliances such as your dishwasher, clothes washer and dryer until after 7pm.
  • Keep windows and doors closed to prevent the loss of cool air.
  • Avoid agricultural and residential water pumping between the peak hours of noon to 7pm.

According to Phillips LMUD continues to work on a plan that will provide the affected communities with a permanent and stable power supply. Until the lines are either repaired or replaced, the utility is asking customers to practice energy conservation.
