(MOELLER--BITE #1):
"
ELECTRIC-COMPANIES CONTINUE TO WORK, AROUND THE CLOCK, TO RESTORE POWER TO CUSTOMERS IMPACTED BY 'HURRICANE FLORENCE'.  CREWS HAVE ALREADY RESTORED POWER TO MORE THAN ONE-POINT-SIX-MILLION CUSTOMERS, SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THE STORM--AND ARE WORKING AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE, PROVIDED CONDITIONS ARE SAFE FOR THEM TO DO SO."

(MOELLER--BITE #2):
"
SOME OF THE MOST-COMPLEX AND -CHALLENGING POWER-RESTORATION WORK REMAINS IN AREAS THAT CURRENTLY ARE INACCESSIBLE--AND THAT HAVE EXPERIENCED MASSIVE FLOODING AND STRUCTURAL DAMAGE.  CREWS AND EQUIPMENT HAVE BEEN MOVED AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE TO THOSE HEAVILY IMPACTED AREAS--SO THAT ALL RESOURCES CAN BE BROUGHT TO BEAR, AS SOON AS CONDITIONS ALLOW."

(MOELLER--BITE #3):
"
WE KNOW THAT BEING WITHOUT POWER CAUSES HARDSHIPS.  PLEASE KNOW THAT ELECTRIC-COMPANIES WILL NOT STOP THEIR STORM-RESTORATION EFFORTS, UNTIL THE LAST CUSTOMER WHO CAN RECEIVE POWER IS RESTORED.  WHILE CUSTOMERS MAY NOT SEE ELECTRIC-COMPANY PERSONNEL IN THEIR NEIGHBORHOODS, THE ENERGY-GRID IS HEAVILY INTERCONNECTED--AND CREWS ARE WORKING, THROUGHOUT THE SYSTEM, TO BRING POWER BACK ON, AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE."
