Duke Energy approved to stage emergency equipment at Kendrick Park

                Franklin County Commissioners agreed this week to allow Duke Energy to stage equipment at Kendrick Park in Carrabelle during emergency situations like hurricanes.

The agreement will help Duke Energy respond to local needs after a major storm or other event so that power can be restored more quickly for county residents.

The county signed a similar agreement earlier this month that allows Duke Energy to stage equipment at the Apalachicola airport.

The agreement will remain in effect through December of 2017.
