根据桑迪来袭几天之前启动的长期互助协议,来自全美82家公用事业公司的超过6.4万工人组成了紧急队伍,其中包括周四抵达的来自圣迭戈煤气电力公司(San Diego Gas & Electric)的一组工作人员。
'It's epic,' said Brian Wolff, senior vice president of Edison Electric. 'I think it's the biggest mobilization we've seen.'
爱迪生电气协会的高级副总裁沃尔夫(Brian Wolff)说,这是一次惊人之举,我想这是我们见过的最大规模的动员。
Their task is Herculean: 1.7 million customers were without electricity in New Jersey; 1.5 million in New York; 500,000 in Pennsylvania; 348,000 in Connecticut; 139,000 in West Virginia; 40,000 in Maryland; and 21,000 in Rhode Island.
工人们的任务非常艰巨:新泽西州170万人断电;纽约州150万;宾夕法尼亚州50万;康涅狄格州34.8万;西弗吉尼亚州13.9万;马里兰州4万;罗得岛州2.1万。
New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg said neighborhoods served by overhead lines may not be repaired until the end of next week. 'We have volunteer crews from across the country,' Mr. Bloomberg said. 'But it's just an enormous job, and you have to go up in a bucket and fix each one as you get to it.'
纽约市长布隆伯格(Michael Bloomberg)说,依靠架空线供电的社区可能得等到下周末才能修复供电。布隆伯格说,我们拥有来自全国的志愿者队伍,但这是一个工作量巨大的工作,工人们需要站在起重机车上在高空的电线杆上一个一个修理。
