Clallam County PUD has a contractor performing a transmission pole replacement project between Beaver and Forks that began a week ago. The notice on the PUD’s website states that during this project there may be intermittent power “bumps” as they take minute outages to conduct work.

The contractors will be notifying customers prior to these occurrences. At the end of the project, there will be two overnight outages from 11:59 p.m. to 6 a.m. on the nights of both July 29-30, and July 30-31. If you have any questions or concerns during this project, please call our Forks office at (360) 374-6201.
