[ARCHIVED] Power Conservation Vital Through Saturday

CONSERVE Power_five light bulbs with only one lit up

Please conserve power, La Marque, or we could all go dark again. Energy demand is still critically high across the state. Refrain from running appliances, such as washing machines and dishwashers.

CONSERVATION IS KEY: Many Galveston County residents had electricity restored overnight but we aren't out of the woods yet. Conserve power, La Marque, or we could all go dark again. It is still snowing in West Texas, and temperatures are below freezing across the state. Energy demand is still critically high. 

Please keep thermostats below 68, or as low as comfortably possible. Refrain from running appliances, such as washing machines and dishwashers. Please do it for your fellow Texans. By Saturday, demand on the power grid should level out. Until then, conservation is vital. 

City and County leadership is pushing for the full restoration of power to all residents. Please do your part. We are stronger together.
