According to its outage map, Georgia Power has two outages in Liberty County, affecting 46 customers, and five outages in Long County, affecting 161 customers.

Coastal EMC’s outage map indicates 1,811 customers have been affected.

For those residents who have a power outage, they are asked to call their power provider and not 911, County Administrator Joey Brown said.

EMA Director Robert Dodd said residents should treat a downed power line as if it were still active and not go near it. He also said reports of damage should be made to (912) 368-2202.
