Reader says First priority is for areas where PSE&G employees live
First priority is for areas where employees live, generally the towns south of route 4. They don’t care about you ‘suits’ in Ridgewood.
I have yet to see one of PSEG’s tree contractors on the road in Ridgewood OR one of their bucket trucks. Prove me wrong. And where are the ‘out of state crews’?? Usually dont see them till a week later. All in all, typical SLOW response by PSEG.
I can’t prove you wrong about seeing trucks on streets in Ridgewood.I haven’t seen one although I’m told power went on in CBD and it certainly went on in a large northeast section of village, including my house. Frankly, I don’t need to see trucks, I need my power on.
Ridgewood has a low population density.
If you ran PSE&G and could assign a crew to work 8 hours to turn on power to an additional 10,000 customers or to an additional 50,000 people, where would you send your workers first? (those numbers are illustrative).
I’ll certainly take your word that there aren’t a lot of PSE&G linemen living on the westside of Ridgewood, and probably few or none on the eastside. But I don’t think that proves your point either.
I don’t know about any out of state crews, but I’ll assume if they aren’t here they might be in NY, Conn., and PA, there is plenty of outage to go around.
