JCPL should be fined by the State for not being prepared for this storm
I would strongly reccomend that the LB Council require a full report on what went wrong and how they would respond in the future
That would be responsible representation for constituancies

JCPL. JUST CARELESSLY PROVIDING LIGHT

Is it First Energy to blame or JCPL? Whoever? This darkened neighborhood is a shame to the utility companies who had ample time to prepare.

They do this every storm. They ran out of poles up north jersey just like irene. We jave to wait for supplies. I lost power twice before this. One week each. Maybe im used to it but its still no excuse. I wish I cud switch to PSEG. So much better run.

Thank you God for all the out of town boys that put our power back on.....It was the same way for me with Irene 4 days out, two 23 year sweethearts from Virginia got our power on. Another thing these outside guys are all joking about JCPL

Well the big jokes on the poor people of N..J.....Those people take care of there own. Received my estimated inflated jcpl bill today after 8 days of being in the dark.....

JCPL guy made a comment " They should not have put that pole up" Are you kidding me buddy....maybe we should tell our kids we gotta wait a couple more days for another 2 or 3 jcpl guys to come assess it and do nothing but pad there checks....We only had 10 already show up one with "when We Can" in duck tape on the side of his truck....a disgrace....

JCPL is a disgrace. Power STILL out in places right near Monmouth Univ. These are rental houses where students live! They have no where to go. One week is plenty long enough. Our street was not flooded and no trees down. Worst utility in the state.

Listen people, I know it's a difficult time and everyone wants to blame someone else for what's going on, but when you have a severe storm like we just had, who is really prepared. How many people don't have generators and were scrambling around looking for one? Or those who weren't smart enough to get your cars filled before the storm, etc. Some of those people that encountered this are probably the ones complaining here right here? If that's what happened, then you weren't prepared. I don't think anyone knew the severity of this storm, so please stop complaining, and be grateful that you are alive and well. I know people that lost everything and cannot return to their homes. You don't know the circumstances of JCP&L or what damages they had in their buildings. There were trees that fell on homes and homes were washed away, how long do you think it will be before they receive some normalcy? We have electricians from other states stepping in and they didn't have to do that. Imagine if they weren't here we would all be in deep doo doo. So, think about what they are doing for us, they left their families to travel all this way for us. I had to live 6 days with my family with out power it was frustrating but I understand. So please stop your complaining, stop blaming, help others that are in need and wait it out..it's all you can do.
