Montgomery's electricity crisis continues as utility ignores recommendations on infrastructure and communication and focused on trees - Montgomery County, MD

Panel: Montgomery's electricity crisis continues

Montgomery County's struggle for quality electrical service is not over, according to at least one member of a panel that studied the issue.

"Montgomery County is still in the middle of a crisis," said Keith Haller, a member of a panel assembled by County Executive Isiah Leggett (D) to study Pepco.

Despite the group's work, Haller said Pepco has largely ignored the panel's recommendations and is committed to conducting business as usual, with few improvements to its infrastructure or communication.
