As of 5 AM Tuesday, Duke Energy is reporting over 150 customers are in the dark in the Goldsboro area.  Another 96 customers are without power near Brogden, and 415 remain in the dark near Mount Olive.

Now, in addition to addressing standard challenges, Duke Energy’s detailed storm response plan has incorporated CDC recommendations for COVID compliance and social distancing measures to help keep customers and communities safe.

Repair crews will wear face coverings when social distancing cannot be maintained. In addition, work practices have been modified to reduce interactions.

Duke Energy requests that customers remain outside of marked work zones and refrain from approaching repair crews.
