PONCE, PUERTO RICO – Hundreds of massive coils of heavy high tension wire arrive at the lay-down yard in Ponce, Puerto Rico, part of the tons of critical electrical components flowing in daily from throughout the nation to rebuild the island’s electrical distribution system. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ Task Force Power Restoration team is ramping up the flow of inventory of critical power grid materials, awaiting restoration site distribution requests from the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority.
