Pleasant View / Cahone Area Outage Monday October 19, 2026 9:30 PM:
EEA responded to an outage in the Pleasant View / Cahone area at the Anasazi substation at 5:40 PM this afternoon. The crew discovered a bird made contact with a high voltage switch in the substation damaging it and requiring replacement. Upon replacement the high voltage feed would not reconnect. A Tri-State crew is enroute to evaluate the transformer. EEA crews are working to backfeed as many members as possible from the Dove Creek and Arriola substations. Members on the west side of our service area between Arriola and Dove Creek may have short outages as the crews perform switching. Members south and west of Pleasant View will not have power restored until approximately 3:30 AM October 20. If the transformer is damaged and a mobile substation is required power will not be restored until the late afternoon October 20. We will provide updates when we have more information.
