A scheduled preventative maintenance outage will affect areas in the village of Santa Rita-Sumai on Tuesday, Jan. 7, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. 

Customers affected are along Route 2A from Apra Mobil Gas Station to Sumai Taco Bell, including all customers in Santa Rita Industrial Drive and surrounding areas.

Businesses also affected include Apra Mobil Gas Station, V. Angoco Trucking, Island Equipment, Tri-Star Terminals Guam, Hawaiian Rock Agat Plant, Guam Shipyard Workshop, AIC International, Unitek, Sumai Pizza Hut, and Sumai Taco Bell.

Guam Power Authority will make system improvements and conduct preventative maintenance to avoid future power outages. 

In most cases, the job can be done with no impact to customers; however, sometimes the power needs to be shut off in order for the crews to work safely. 

GPA is committed to keeping our customers and employees safe and we will turn the power back on as soon as we can.

If you have a generator, make sure your main breaker is in the open position for the safety of our line crew.

Have a plan for alternate power sources for electrical medical equipment, charge all cell phones, and minimize opening refrigerator and freezer doors during the outage.
