Area: Mackenzie #23
Description: The persistent cold weather continues to disrupt natural gas supply in Mackenzie County. Areas south of La Crete continue to experience natural gas supply outages. The problem is expected to persist until gas pressures reach normal levels, which will likely be several days after temperatures rise. Natural gas supply trucks are being brought in to try and maintain gas line pressure.
Instruction: Reception centre established at La Crete Mennonite Heritage Centre. Affected residents encouraged to stay with friends and family who have alternative heat sources.
