On Thursday, CPS Energy sent crews to Garland, a city in Dallas County. They will be working to restore power in the area.

“It’s part of our job, getting people’s lights on, and we’re doing it for CPS Energy, helping other utility companies out and getting the lights on for them,” said Paul Herrera, a CPS Energy line crew foreman.

The crew comprises equipment operators, mechanic crews, safety teams, fleet personnel and nursing staff.
