The National Weather Service has forecasted the potential for strong to severe thunderstorms on Thursday, August 7. These storms may produce damaging wind gusts and large hail.

Please be aware that Inland Power is currently operating in LEVEL 1 - FIRE SAFETY MODE for our service territory. When operating in Level 1 - Fire Safety Mode, reliability functionality is removed so that when an external object like a tree branch impacts the line, the system will not automatically restore power. This creates a sustained outage that must be inspected by qualified line workers in order to restore power.

In the event of an outage, please report it outage through your SmartHub account or call 877-668-8243. Additionally, you can stay informed through our outage map at inlandpower.com.

We received this from Inland Power and Light and thought it was good information to share:

Dear valued member,

Due to the increasing threat of wildfire, Inland Power has expanded its Fire Safety Mode settings to now include both high and moderate risk areas. These portions of our service territory will remain in Fire Safety Mode for the remainder of the summer, or as long as the wildfire threat is present.
FIRE SAFETY MODE JUNE 2024 - EBLAST_High-Moderate Risk

What is Fire Safety Mode?

Fire Safety Mode means impacted portions of our system are in non-reclose status and will become de-energized when an object hits an energized power line until crews restore power. Reclosers operate like circuit breakers that are typically programmed to reclose and complete the circuit after an interruption such as a tree limb trips the circuit. Under normal operations, reclosers are programmed to allow for three line-trips before the circuit remains open, which causes an outage.

By putting our system in fire safety mode, outages can occur more frequently because the system won’t be able to attempt a reclose, and instead will automatically de-energize the line. This helps reduce potential fire risk, but once again, increases the likelihood and number of system outages.

Be Prepared

It is imperative that everyone is prepared and has a plan in place should an outage occur. There are multiple ways that you can be prepared should you find yourself in a power outage.

If you have a medical device that requires a power connection to operate, be sure you have a backup power source like a battery pack or generator. It can also be beneficial to make arrangements ahead of time to stay somewhere that has power still connected.
For those who use a well as their water source, be sure you have a backup plan to keep your well connected to power.
Ensure your First Aid kit is stocked with pain relievers, bandages and other medical essentials and make sure your prescriptions are current.
Stock your pantry with a three-day supply of non-perishable food, such as canned goods, energy bars, peanut butter, powdered milk, instant coffee, water and other essentials (i.e., diapers and toiletries).
Set aside basic household items you will need, including flashlights, batteries, a manual can opener and a portable, battery-operated phone charger.
Organize emergency supplies so they are easily accessible in one location.
Be sure your car is fueled up in case you need to charge your devices in your vehicle.

In the event of a prolonged power outage, unplug major appliances, TVs, computers and other sensitive electronics. This will help avert damage from a power surge and will also help prevent overloading the circuits during power restoration. That said, do leave one light on so you will know when power is restored. If you plan to use a small generator, make sure it’s rated to handle the amount of power you will need, and always review the manufacturer’s instructions to operate it safely.

It is also a good idea to leave a frozen cup of water in your freezer. Place a quarter of top on the ice. After power is restored, if the quarter is at the bottom of the cup, it could mean that the freezer thawed enough to spoil the food inside.

Advanced planning can reduce stress and anxiety caused by multiple or prolonged outages. At Inland Power, we recommend that you act today to ensure you are prepared should outages occur.

IMPORTANT – PLEASE READ!

In the past, Spokane has experienced abnormally cold weather. Many of you may recall winters when extremely cold weather caused freeze-ups, broken lines, flooding and many other plumbing problems. Service interruptions were not limited to commercial and single-family residential properties, but included multi-family apartment complexes (such as yours) as well.

Service interruptions are most likely to occur during periods of extremely cold weather, especially when temperatures do not rise above 10 degrees Fahrenheit. Please cooperate with your fellow residents to help assure uninterrupted service by following these suggestions:


Keep heat up to a normal level whether you are home or away from home. DO NOT turn heat off either at the thermostat or circuit breaker.
Open all cabinet doors under your sinks to allow heat to reach the plumbing.
Keep a pencil size stream of hot and cold water running through your faucets at all times.
If you do experience an interruption of water services, contact your Resident Manager immediately so that the pipes may be thawed.
Let your manager know if you are going to be away from your unit for an extended period of time.


Again, you should resort to these procedures ONLY when temperatures remain near zero and do not rise appreciably during the daytime hours. If you have any questions as to whether you should leave water running, contact your Resident Manager.

Should you experience a freeze-up, please tell your Resident Manager immediately and then rest assured that we will make every effort to restore service as soon as possible. Keep in mind, however, that during extended periods of cold temperatures, the plumbing resources of this city cannot keep up with demand and delays are inevitable.

When a water line freezes, it is common for the line to rupture and cause flooding. Therefore, we urge you to carry an adequate renter’s insurance policy and to be sure your premiums are current. These policies are available at moderate cost from local insurance agents. Remember, your personal property is not covered by insurance policies that we carry on your apartment community.

It is extremely important that you follow these instructions during extreme cold weather. If frozen or broken pipes occur as a result of one or more of these steps not being taken you may be held responsible for repair and clean-up costs.
CAUTION – SNOW & ICE WARNING
Walkways and parking lots can be hazardous due to snow and ice. We will make every attempt to maintain these areas so they are safe and passable for everyone but we would advise you to exercise extreme caution when using sidewalks, stairways and parking lot areas including under carports and around garages. We would also ask you to please let your Resident Manager know of any areas that may present a hazard to other residents.

Sincerely,
Moland Management Co., Inc.

Beginning January 12, the weather service is predicting the arrival of a cold snap in our area. Frigid temperatures are in the forecast for the next 4-5 days, and while we can't change the weather, we do monitor it to ensure we keep our energy supply at a level that will meet everyone’s needs.

When cold weather such as this hits, customers who heat their home with gas or electricity can see a significant increase in their energy usage.

For example, if we experience more than three days of temperatures that are 10 to 14 degrees below normal, our average customers see their energy use increase 25 to 50 percent during that time frame, depending on individual household circumstances.

Heating during the winter months adds up and is responsible for more than half of the energy a home uses. During periods of colder than normal weather, a home’s heating system works harder – even if no one touches the thermostat.

To learn more about how winter impacts your bill visit myavista.com/winterbill. For energy saving tips and easy DIY videos of low and no-cost ways to keep the cold out, visit myavista.com/energytips.

If you need further assistance related to an outage, please call us at (800) 227-9187. Customers needing additional support during this time are encouraged to call 211 or visit www.wa211.org or www.211.idaho.gov.


Thank you,

Avista

Spokane County
Public Works
Sewer Service Rate Increase
Effective March 1, 2024, Spokane County will implement new sewer
rates. A rate increase is necessary to support the ongoing operation and reliability of the public sewer system as well as assist with increased costs of treatment due to additional regulations. Rates help fund a wide range of items, including the ongoing cleaning and inspection of sewers, collection system upgrades, preventative maintenance and repairs, scheduled equipment replacements, energy and chemical costs, emergency response, and the daily operation of treatment plants. Rates will increase by $1.00 for most customers, which is just over a 2% increase in a time of rising inflation. Additional rate information for a Single Family Residence, Duplexes, Multi-Family Dwellings, Business/Commercial and Manufactured Home Parks is available on our website
at www.spokanecounty.org/publicworks.

It's that time again!

Fall is falling and freezing temperatures are just around the corner.

We want to remind you of the important steps you need to take heading into the cold weather.

Green Valley Lawn care and AutoRain Sprinkler have begun sprinkler blow outs on the West Plains - Cheney, Medical Lake, and Airway Heights.

They will then winterize the Valley, North & South.
Please make sure to rake up your leaves and pine needles prior to snowfall.

It's also time for you to disconnect any outside hoses so water may drain from the plumbing. Be sure to let us know if your outside faucets are dripping.

Lastly, make sure you're changing your furnace filters & smoke detector batteries.

Spring is in the air and we are again out and about doing our Spring inspections. Ron Moland has a dark grey, almost black, truck and will be inspecting the exterior of all our properties. He has grey hair and an athletic build. He may get out and walk around the outside of the property to check roofs, rain-gutters, exterior paint, fences, etc. If you see him say hello.
