The 2008 hurricane season officially begins on June 1st. Because of its close proximity to the coast, Fayetteville is easily affected by hurricanes which reach North Carolina. At PWC, our emergency plan of operations is in place -- ready to implement on a moment's notice. Rest assured if we do experience utility outages, PWC crews will work around the clock to restore power and water as quickly as possible to all our customers.

We'd like to take this opportunity to offer the following reminders to ensure your emergency plan is in place as well.
