Fifty-four line workers from Southwestern Electric Power Company
(SWEPCO), an American Electric Power (NYSE: AEP) company, today arrived in
Sacramento, California, to assist Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) in
addressing power outages associated with the state’s ongoing high winds and
wildfire emergency.
Employees from across SWEPCO’s territory –
including Northwest Arkansas, Southwest Arkansas, Northwest Louisiana, East
Texas and West Texas – will receive their work assignments and locations this
afternoon.
Due to ongoing high wind conditions, PG&E
power lines have been de-energized to prevent them from causing or contributing
to wildfires. Other power lines have been damaged by fire. SWEPCO linemen will
inspect and assess the condition of PG&E facilities to help determine which
are ready to be re-energized and which will require repairs.
“PG&E has a critical need for experienced line personnel to help them get a handle on the best and safest way to help address this emergency while their workers focus on outage recovery,” said Drew Seidel, SWEPCO Vice President for Distribution.
SWEPCO’s sister companies AEP Ohio, Indiana
Michigan Power and Public Service of Oklahoma also sent employees. The total
AEP employee count is 112.
There is no definitive timeframe for the AEP
personnel to remain in California, but they were told before leaving to prepare
for a stay of a week or more.
In 2012, a routine mammogram turned into something Elizabeth Dailey did not expect. But the procedure enabled her cancer to be detected early sparing her the pain and expense of chemotherapy and radiation treatments. Photos by Henrietta Wildsmith.
Breast cancer survivor Elizabeth Dailey knows firsthand the
benefit of regular mammograms.
In spring 2012, the SWEPCO budget analyst went for what she
imagined would be a routine appointment, however, it turned out to be anything
but.
She’d had annual mammograms for the past 12 years and knew
the process well. Therefore, she thought nothing of it when she received a
certified letter asking her to return for additional screenings.
“I had received such a letter before, so I was not overly
concerned,” she said. “I went for the follow up, which consisted of additional
mammograms and an ultrasound.”
Survivor says joyful outlook helped her through difficult journey
The day Cassundra Mayo discovered a lump in her left breast; it did not even cross her mind that it could be cancer.
“I was lying across my bed talking to my sister on the phone and said ‘Oh, there’s a little knot right there. Hmm, better get that checked out,’” said Mayo, who works in meter services at Southwestern Electric Power Co. (SWEPCO) in Shreveport.

SWEPCO recently presented Texarkana Aluminum with a $94,987.74 incentive check for an energy efficient lighting project at its aluminum mill in Texarkana, Texas.
The mill now boasts more LEDs (light-emitting diodes) with the goal eventually to have all LED lighting. LEDs have longer lifespans and lower maintenance costs compared to the mill’s previous and existing metal halide and T5 fluorescent lighting.
Tony Rash, Public Safety and Health manager, began to feel off at the start of the summer in 2014. When he went to the doctor a month after his initial symptoms, he began a two-year battle with cancer that would require six surgeries.
The summer of 2014 was an eye-opening one for
Tony Rash.
That June, the Longview resident began to feel
off. His appetite was gone, and when he did eat, it only took a couple bites
for him to feel full.
He knew something was not right but kept finding
excuses for his unusual symptoms.
”It was so easy for me when I first started to
say ‘Oh, it’s hot. I’m not eating as much because it’s hot weather,’” Rash
said. “So many times we put off what we know are real problems.”
