According to a recent update from Liberty Utilities Central, crews are continuing work in Zones 1 through 4, with Liberty teams from Georgia, Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, New Hampshire, and New York, along with crews from mutual aid partners Ameren and Spire. Due to the amount of time that it takes to run safety checks on all appliances at each location, the company says the process will take about 15 to 20 minutes per household. Liberty Utilities says it will continue to work as quickly as possible to restore service to all customers. If missed, the crew will leave behind a door hanger with contact information.
