FEMA to cover PIE&G's $113 million storm costs
Original: All of PIE&G’s storm $113 million costs to be covered by FEMA
Presque Isle Electric & Gas Co-op says FEMA will reimburse the full $113 million it incurred from storm damage recovery in northern Michigan. The federal coverage spares the utility's member customers from bearing the repair costs through rates, a significant relief for the rural co-op and its service area.
Why now: Federal disaster reimbursement of a utility's entire storm bill directly affects local customers' costs and is rare good news after severe weather.
