Comments:

Electrical Power Restoration Teams coordinate and support resources of energy producers to quickly restore electrical power to afflicted areas. Members should possess the experience and financial capabilities to support equipment and personnel, and to maintain operations for an indefinite period of time. Teams are “Site-Specific” and dependent on personnel and equipment deployment. The above type is only one example of said resource. usamedsonline.com
