Gareth:

There are no scheduled outages for Tuesday. However, Tuesday is the rain date for Monday's scheduled outage (if it rains on Monday, the work will be performed on Tuesday).

Please note that your business will not be impacted by the scheduled outages.

Should you have additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Thanks,

Donna

Hello Donna, could you tell me if the planned outage next Tuesday night (midnight 8/14) will be affecting my business? The website states that Pepco will be contacting customers in the affected area, but I'm afraid I don't have much faith in your company's ability to effectively communicate to your customers.  Even though I have not been contacted, I am very concerned that the proposed shut down is on a day where we have a sold out event for DC Beer week.  An outage that evening would be extremely detrimental to our business, since we operate until 2am and expect to have a full house at midnight when the outage is being planned.  Pepco has already cost us over $13,400 in lost product and revenue over the past month and this would be the icing on a very, very expensive cake.  Please let me know if my fears are correct and who I need to contact to have the date and/or time of this shut down changed.  Thank you.
