power plant

Earlier today, a power outage threw a portion of the UT campus into darkness and KUT and KLRU off the air. The outage was caused by a small animal who got into a switch gear at the UT power plant.

During the outage, one unfortunate person had to be rescued from an elevator at the ATT Conference Center.

Power was restored after 1.25 hours and KUT (as well as KLRU) was back on the air at 8:30am.

Actions include IH-35 Makeover, job experience for disabled Austinites and final decommissioning of Holly Street Power Plant.

A new power plant has recently opened up in Austin in a rather unusual place -- the Austin Community Landfill.
