Service Area Outage Update – December 27, 2022

Posted: December 27, 2022 at 6:49 pm

There are currently widespread outages throughout the County. Our service area sustained significant damage.

Area outage updates include:

  • The Bonneville Power Administration transmission line that supplies power to the City of Tillamook and central Tillamook areas is currently down. BPA is making repairs, this line needs to be repaired and restored in order for TPUD to restore power to the Tillamook areas currently without power.
  • The PacifiCorp transmission line that supplies power from Garibaldi to Manzanita is without power. PacifiCorp is making repairs, this lines needs to be repaired and restored in order for TPUD to restore power to the North Tillamook County areas from Garibaldi to Manzanita.

TPUD is continuing to work on these areas, but power will not be restored to these areas until we have transmission lines restored to substations.

  • There are multiple service locations without power. Crews are continuing work to make repairs and restore power to these areas.

We do not have an estimated time for power restoration to each area.  Some areas may be without power overnight. Tillamook PUD crews have been working for over 24 hours, they will be concluding work for the day at 10 p.m. and will be back out at 6 a.m. to continue work.

We appreciate the community support and patience as we work to restore power.
