AG Coakley seeks more than $16m in fines against National Grid for response to
October snowstorm and Tropical Storm Irene
Massachusetts Attorney General Martha Coakley announced Thursday that she was seeking more than $16 million in fines against National Grid for what she said was the company’s subpar
performance in restoring power after Tropical Storm Irene last August and the rare early snowstorm in October.
“We believe that Massachusetts customers deserve better,” Coakley said at a news conference Thursday. “I am hopeful that this will send a message that they can, and should, be doing better.”
Hundreds of thousands of National Grid customers lost their power, first when the winds from Irene whirled through the state, then when the record-setting pre-Halloween snowstorm weighed down
tree limbs and brought down wires. Thousands of people had to wait days for their power to be restored.
