Newtok residents are working to restore power at the local Ayaprun School, after state emergency-management officials say a fire last night destroyed its power plant.
The fire, in the community of about 200 people roughly 95 miles northwest of Bethel, was described infrom the Alaska Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Management. The Ayaprun School’s power plant was destroyed in the blaze, which took place at about 6:30 p.m. Thursday.
Division spokesman Jeremy Zidek said that further information on the fire and its aftermath was pending Friday morning. Bill Stamm, the president of the Alaska Village Electric Cooperative, said that outage started Sunday when the local generator ran out of fuel. As work continued to restore power, a feeder circuit breaker serving much of the community of about 1,300 people couldn’t readily be closed. Workers discovered that was due to a power line coming off one of its insulators.
