Emergency repair to cause power outage in and around L'Anse

L'ANSE, MI— A power outage is planned for the L’Anse area Saturday night into Sunday morning.

Power will be out from 8 p.m. on Saturday, February 17th through 7 a.m. on Sunday, February 18th. The Village of L’Anse, L’Anse Township, Aura, Skanee, Herman, and other areas will be without electricity, including REA and UPPCO customers.

ATC says if the work isn’t done immediately, it could cause an even longer outage.
