Price City News Release

A planned power outage will affect a portion of Price City starting at 9:00 PM on Saturday, June 7th, 2025, and lasting until no later than 9:00 PM on Sunday, June 8th, 2025. 

Affected Customers: 

• All Price City Utilities customers with account numbers starting with 1, 4, 12, or 14, immediately followed by a period. 
• Some customers with account numbers starting with 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 9, 11, or 17, immediately followed by a period. 
• Customers who pay their power bills to Rocky Mountain Power or Helper City will not be affected. 

Reason for the Outage: 

This temporary outage is necessary to allow specialized technicians to perform essential maintenance and repairs on components within the City’s 46,000 Volt transformer at the Downtown Substation. Price City carefully considered various options and consulted with 

trusted organizations before determining that this scheduled outage will cause the least inconvenience to those affected. Crews will work diligently to minimize the outage duration and complete the work safely and with the highest quality. 

Safety Precautions During the Outage: 

• Please plan ahead to reduce travel within the affected area. 
• Exercise caution while driving and reduce speed. 
• Yield to emergency vehicles by pulling over to the shoulder, regardless of your direction of travel. 
• Treat non-working or red-flashing traffic signals as a 4-way stop. 
• Use extra caution at railroad crossings (Stop, Look, and Listen). 

Important Information for Residents with Home Health Needs: 

Residents requiring home health services should make alternative arrangements as soon as possible by contacting their caregivers and providers. 

Outage Updates: 

Updates will be available on the Price City Power update page, accessible via a link sent to those registered for text message notifications. To sign up, text “power” to (435) 260-3166 and follow the instructions. Registration for notifications related to this outage must be completed by 3 PM on Friday, June 6th, 2025. Registrations after this time will receive notifications for future events.
