Notice for Franklin County Residents in Rural, Foothills, and Mountain Areas

Due to current drought conditions, minimal rainfall in the forecast, and rising temperatures, Rocky Mountain Power has implemented its Enhanced Safety Settings in select service areas to help reduce the risk of wildfires.

These safety measures may result in more frequent and longer power outages in affected areas. Residents who are impacted should have already received a notification from Rocky Mountain Power.

Please take time now to prepare for the possibility of extended power outages and potential wildfire activity. Have emergency supplies ready, charge essential devices, and stay informed of changing conditions.

Thank you for helping keep our communities safe.
