Williams, Control Center, File FROM: Captain Rufus Jones At approximately 1450 hours0.0168 days <br />0.403 hours <br />0.0024 weeks <br />5.51725e-4 months <br /> the above date, a temporary loss of electrical power was experienced throughout the institution. The loss of power also affected the telephone system as well. All power was restored in a matter of minutes. In conferring with Power House Staff, it was learned that the.cause of the problem was due to an energy surge in the Power House area.

Further, as a result of that power outage, an interruption of power occurred on D-Block at approximately 1645 hours0.019 days <br />0.457 hours <br />0.00272 weeks <br />6.259225e-4 months <br />. As a precaution measure, I directed that all inmates remain locked in their cells until the problem could be corrected. However, due to staff being unable to contact Electrical Personnel in a timely fashion, the order was issued to feed the block in a contrclled fashion.

Additional officers were also assigned to not only the block but dining; room as well. Further, Lt.'s Dietrich and Burns also aided myself in supervisory coverage for the feeding period. The feeding commenced at 1830 hours0.0212 days <br />0.508 hours <br />0.00303 weeks <br />6.96315e-4 months <br /> and concluded at 1915 hours0.0222 days <br />0.532 hours <br />0.00317 weeks <br />7.286575e-4 months <br />, free of any incidents. The only lighting available during the feeding was the center row (night lights).

There was only four.(4-). emergency lights. operating *on the block at this time. It should also be noted' that during'the co'urse of this loss of power, there was no interruption of block telephone call or visits. Mr.
