(CENTRALIA, WA) -- The Centralia City Council on Tuesday
unanimously approved an $822,000 contract with Electric Power Systems Inc. for
engineering support services for Centralia City Light related to the proposed
new Salzer substation and other City Light needs. City Light Director M.L.
Norton says currently they have only one substation located on the east side of
I-5 and the city’s downtown core with city hall, several schools and the
majority of the city’s population are located there. He says the proposed
Salzer substation would provide a backup in providing electricity to those
areas.
