TOWNSHIP ISSUES STORM PREP TIPS

PSE&G Prepares for Hurricane Joaquin

What can you do to prepare?


PSE&G is making preparations for a possible landfall of Hurricane Joaquin. We are also closely monitoring the expected heavy rains and high winds over the next several days.
While it is too early to know with any certainty when and where Joaquin will make landfall – and the strength of the storm when it does – we take every storm with the potential for outages seriously. We are activating our emergency protocol and personnel, and performing system checks on critical transmission and distribution equipment. Also, we are requesting mutual aid from other utilities, securing additional tree crews and ensuring the availability of materials and supplies.

What can you do? Stay connected:
  • Register for our free MyAlerts service ahead of time to receive email or text notifications about an outage at pseg.com/myalerts.
  • Sign up for My Account at pseg.com and bookmark the mobile-friendly homepage on your smart phone to report outages and check restoration progress.
  • Compile a list of emergency phone numbers, including PSE&G's Customer Service line at 1-800-436-PSEG.
  • "Like" PSEG on Facebook and follow PSEG on Twitter @PSEGdelivers for tips and information about storm progress.
  • Be ready to report and track outages on PSE&G's "Outage Center" at pseg.com/outagecenter
