Sandy, Day 2: “Mile-Long Gas Lines”

November 3, 2012

By Bob Gerstle

 

Crews have positive attitude; logistically it is tough. Forty ride on school bus each day to staging area at Citi Field. Staging area has grown immensely in just one day. Now in addition to well over 100 PG&E vehicles, there are crews from Con Ed, Florida Power and Light, contractors and many tree companies. Over 50 trailers for sleeping and showering have been brought in. FEMA has a command station.

Gas lines have doubled in length. We are seeing lines a mile long.

Customers are growing quite impatient. Nothing is happening quick. This will not be over anytime soon for many customers. With the weather getting colder and a storm with 50 mph winds forecast for Wednesday, they fear for the worst.

Bob Gerstle is an IBEW Local 1245 Business Representative.
