| Despite ongoing efforts, 414,000 customers are still without power and will remain in the dark into next week as United Illuminating predicts power restoration for some won't be completed until early next week.
United Illuminating's response to Tropical Storm Isaias has been unacceptable and abysmal. The level of unpreparedness, lack of communication and responsiveness from our largest energy company has been inexcusable. I join Governor Lamont and Attorney General Tong, and my colleagues in calling for an immediate investigation into United Illuminating on their preparation and response to this storm.
With some of the highest energy rates in the continental US, our constituents and ratepayers deserve better, and United Illuminating's executives must be held accountable. |
