In a statement, Puget Sound Energy confirmed two separate incidents at substations in November.
VIDEO: Law enforcement speaks on local substation security concernsSEATTLE — The recent power substation attacks in North Carolina put thousands of customers in the dark recently.
But North Carolina isn’t the only state dealing with substation attacks. In a recent memo sent out by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, there were reports of other physical attacks at substations in parts of Oregon and here in Washington.“We are aware of recent threats on power systems across the country and take these very seriously.
Bernd told KIRO 7 that the FBI cannot directly comment on active investigations, but said this sort of attack is a serious matter. “That is very much ingrained into what everyone here at Seattle City Light does. Even myself who works in an office building, I have a security protocol that I have to follow,” said Seattle City Light media relations manager, Jenn Strang.
But those who live near substations in town, like Casey Evans, believe security can improve — especially since Evans said there have been some dicey situations outside the substation off Denny Way before.
