With the shorter days of winter months upon us, it is even more important to be mindful of streetlight outages in our neighborhoods.
Report all outages to Dominion Energy via their website or by telephone (866-366-4357).
Before reporting a streetlight outage, take note of a couple of things that will help Dominion repair the right light!
For repairs that can’t be made by changing a bulb, Dominion will post a color-coded wrap on the pole indicating the status of the repair.
BLUE
There is an overhead problem, and repairs may take 2–3 weeks.
GREEN
There is an underground problem, and repairs may take 2–3 weeks. A yellow wrap may replace the green wrap on the pole if extensive damage is found.
YELLOW
There is extensive damage to the underground cable. Special equipment and permits may be required for Dominion to make a fix. Typical repair time is 45+ days.
For downed power lines or streetlight poles, please call 866-366-4357 immediately.
“Porchella is something we look forward to all year as returning porch hosts. I’m amazed at how Christina Fletcher pulls it together year after year, gathering musicians and pairing them with porch hosts. This is an incredible community-building event, one that showcases the character, diversity, and cohesive core of our neighborhood. It’s a win-win-win…for the musicians, the hosts, and the attendees.” – Artemis Stoll
