PSE&G Information 7/7/10
Posted by: ptl.angermeyer on Wednesday, July 07, 2010 - 09:26 AM
Hillsdale Police News

Public Service Electric & Gas (PSE&G) has issued a statement to its customers concerning the recent heat wave.  Please see the below information provided by PSE&G:


July 7, 2010

PSE&G Hot Weather Update - 6AM

-- About 6,500 PSE&G customers are currently without power this morning due to the extreme heat. Municipalities with more than 500 customers affected include: Fairview, Elizabeth and Jersey City. The utility serves 2.1 million customers statewide.

-- Yesterday’s preliminary peak demand for electricity, set at 5 p.m., was 10,804 megawatts, which is the highest so far this summer but still shy of the all-time peak demand of 11,108 megawatts set o­n August 2, 2006.

-- Crews will be working throughout the day to restore power. PSE&G appreciates everyone’s patience.

-- Although we expect to have enough electricity to meet demand, it’s always helpful to conserve where possible. PSE&G is providing the following conservation tips:

Turn off everything you’re not using; lights, TVs, computers, etc. Use dimmers, timers and motion detectors o­n indoor and outdoor lighting.

Close blinds, shades and draperies facing the sun to keep the sun’s heat out and help fans and air conditioners cool more efficiently.

Close doors leading to uncooled parts of your home. With central air, close off vents to unused rooms.

Delay heat-producing tasks such as washing and drying laundry or dishes until later in the day, and wait until load is full.

Refrain from using nonessential appliances. Unplug or use o­nly when necessary an extra refrigerator in your garage. Also, customers should consider setting their air conditioners to 78 degrees, health permitting.
-- To report a power outage, call PSE&G’s Customer Service line: 1-800-436-PSEG or log o­n to My Account at www.pseg.com.

-- Because the weather is so extreme, PSE&G is activating a Twitter page to keep the public informed about our activities. We encourage customers and constituents to follow us o­n twitter.

This information was provided by PSE&G.  Please do not call the Hillsdale Police Department for information about PSE&G, unless reporting an emergency (e.g., new electrical light outages, utility pole fires, etc.).

Bear Cub Spotted, Tracked in Hillsdale

Bear Cub Spotted, Tracked in Hillsdale

 

Beginning o­n the evening of May 5, 2010, Police Headquarters received several reports from concerned residents that a bear cub had been spotted near Langerfeld Drive.  Police Sergeant Dan McLaughlin was dispatched and arrived moments later, but the bear fled the neighborhood, seeking refuge in nearby woods.  It was determined that the bear cub was not posing a threat to any persons or property, and further concluded that the cub was behaving normally.  In the interests of general public safety and as a precaution, the Hillsdale Police Department broadcasted a “Swift Reach” Reverse 9-1-1 notification, which is a town-wide critical message program, alerting residents of the situation via telephone. 

 

On the following day, May 6, 2010, Police Headquarters logged reports of bear sightings at approximately 5:42 a.m., and also at approximately 3:28 p.m.  o­nce again, the “Swift Reach” Reverse 9-1-1 system was utilized to alert residents.  In addition, personal notifications were made to nearby schools.  o­n the latter occasion, the bear’s path was discerned by Police Officer Cameron Arki, acting o­n information from a resident of Edgewood Court, who reported that her outdoor bird feeder was damaged by the bear while it was seeking food.  Officer Arki and River Vale police officers monitored the bear as it headed toward the wooded area between the Hillsdale and River Vale borders. It was confirmed that the animal was a healthy juvenile-male black bear cub.  The bear soon disappeared into the woods. 

 

It is important to note that this bear, and other similar bears, will periodically travel through the area since larger, stronger bears often drive cubs away from typical bear habitats.  Also, o­nce a juvenile bear cub reaches 2 years of age, they naturally separate from their pack and travel alone. In such cases, the bear is not to be intercepted, controlled, or otherwise relocated by law enforcement or animal control authorities.  o­nly in those rare instances where mature, adult bears have wandered into very densely populated areas—like town centers, or they are interrupting traffic flow, schools, parks, or playgrounds—will authorities attempt to trap and relocate a bear.   

 

Chief Stalter would like to commend the officers involved for a professional and methodical response to this unique incident.  He would like to remind residents that black bear cubs are indigenous and, as such, should be respected as wild animals.  Sound judgment and proper precautions should be employed by adults and children alike when outdoors.  Bears should never be approached, fed, or antagonized.  Take proper precautions to ensure that small outdoor pets are protected; also, outdoor food sources and household refuse should always be properly secured.  Lastly, Chief Stalter would like to thank and recognize the conscientious men and women of the River Vale Police Department, under the direction of Police Chief Michael J. McCann, who responded to this incident.
