For the most part, the lights are back on in Port Arthur.
According to Sallie Rainer, the president and CEO of Entergy Texas, power should be restored everywhere that it can be in Port Arthur by the end of the day Tuesday.
“Certainly, there may be customers who cannot be hooked up because they still have water, but everyone who can be in service we believe will be in service by Tuesday evening,” she said.
Despite the holiday Monday, Entergy crews worked through the day to restore power in the region.
“We’re out there doing our part to get the electricity back, and we’re helping Port Arthur recover from all the damages it’s received,” she explained.
