News flash:

It's June of 2010, 2 years after the flood of 2008. VMEU is at full capacity once again. Our last generator came on line back in October of 2009. An unexplained outage that occurred around 3:45 PM on June tenth was cut short when the plant crew brought a generator up and began serving Vinton within about 15 or 20 minutes of the outage.
