www.insideHALTON.com · OAKVILLE BEAVER Wednesday, November 16, 2011 · 10 Hydro was scrambling as the lights went out Continued from f page 7 "It was a bit of a complicated situation because when you have outages like that you try to redistribute the load to accommodate, but because of the load at that time of night there wasn't capacity in the system," said Brown. In addition, electricity was lost to the Upper Middle Road and Eighth Line area after an underground power line malfunctioned. A small area around the Oakville Golf Club also lost power Monday night, after a tree branch came down on a power line there. Brown described these two outages as very localized and not nearly the same scale as the Maple Grove Drive incident. Power to these two locations was restored later the same evening. Brown said these two outages were coincidental and had nothing to do with the Maple Grove Drive incident. "It's funny," said Brown. "You go along for a period of time and all of a sudden one goes, a second goes and you have folks scrambling all over the place. Actually the system performed very well overall."
