As of this morning, ALL East Township roadways previously closed due to storm related issues are now open.

Mayor Mironov had further conversations today, August 8, with the President and executive leadership of JCP&L, who assured the Township that they would continue to work actively through today and tomorrow Sunday, "with the expected goal that by the end of the day Sunday, August 9, all homes would have power restored, with the possible exception of a few stragglers experiencing unusual difficulty."
