In Anticipation of the Weather...

Press Release: January 3, 2014

In anticipation of the weather, GRMC has this report.
Dave Ness, vice-president shared this:
Alliant Energy notified GRMC that we are on diversion for natural gas from Sunday 9 a.m. until Tuesday 9 a.m. (48 hours). This is not really an inconvenience for GRMC rather it is in our agreement as a larger company and user of energy.
Our boilers are dual fuel and we have tanks of fuel to supply the boilers. So we don’t really change how we operate with this anticipated cold blast.
The agreement for diversion only affects the central GRMC campus. Other buildings are in affected.
We don’t anticipate changing operations.

We also work with staff  who may have challenges getting home or getting to work. We offer short-term housing so that our staff are safe and can get to work to care for patients.
