19 | durhamregion.com This Week | Thursday, June 9, 2022 With thanks and gratitude Storm Response May 2022 To the community of Bowmanville, Thank you for your patience as you and nearly 760,000 fellow Ontarians waited for our crews and partners to safely restore power. Thank you for your trust in the 3,200 Hydro One team members, out-of-province utilities and contractors who worked around the clock. Thank you for your kindness to our crews through your letters, emails, calls and sandwiches. The damage from this storm was unprecedented and affected our entire system with damaged transmission towers and endless kilometres of downed power lines and over 1,900 broken poles. Despite the devastation, I'm incredibly proud of how our teams and suppliers rallied together with Ontarians to support neighbours and help those in need. These moments remind me of the critical role Hydro One plays in energizing Ontario and keeping the lights on for you and your family. Bowmanville, once again, thank you for your continued patience and understanding. Warmest regards, Mark Poweska President and CEO Hydro One HydroOne.com
