NB Power's finances will be
taking another hit because of the second ice storm in the Moncton region and the
Premier admits this stormy winter is causing unsettling financial issues.
The
clean-up costs for the December ice storm that ravaged Charlotte County, the Kennebecasis Valley
and Kingston Peninsula in December came to $12-million with 88 thousand
restorations.
The most recent storm saw 75,000
restorations with more than 100 crews working on the outages, mostly in the
Bouctouche and Shediac areas.
