There are four separate areas in the Quesnel area that are without power according to the BC Hydro website.
BC Hydro Spokesperson Dave Mosure says the biggest one is just west of Quesnel…
“This outage impacts 1,424 customers.  The descriptor is west of Paley Place, and if I go into the map system it goes from roughly Bouchie Lake out to Nazko, so everything west of town.”
The power went out there at 2-51 pm and the reason is that there is a tree across the line.
