LUS has informed us that the rolling outages are over.   They were necessary due to demand on the transmission system.  Electric service was interrupted in a controlled manner to prevent  uncontrolled, long-lasting, and widespread power outages that could cause extensive damage to transmission facilities in the area.  Short-term service interruptions were made for some customers of five utilities – Lafayette Utilities System, CLECO, Entergy, Louisiana Energy and Power Authority, and Louisiana Generating LLC.
