Hartland Electric warns all residents "keep your eyes open for DTE" that are having problems with the electrical surges near the shoreline drive area. I suspect the problems will continue for some time yet.

Here is an update for all residents to the Lake Area.

DC Whitmore Lake 8099 update news by Paul M. Ganz

Last week, Detroit Edison crews began work on the first of several projects designed to improve the power quality challenges in the Whitmore Lake (Green Oak and Northfield Townships) area.

Crews began replacing sections of the 40kv subtransmission lines, as well as the 4.8kv distribution lines on the east side of East Shore between Haley Lane and 7 mile.

Other short term ‘next steps’ include reconfiguring the circuit feed to East Shore, North of McNally; and de-energizing the distribution line over the ‘swamp’ on McNally between East Shore and Marshall.

Longer term work proposes rebuilding the distribution lines along East Shore, south of McNally and north of 7 mile.

In total, this circuit contains more than 60 miles of overhead wires and nearly 24 miles of underground wires.
