Why the power call in a Solvay flood goes to the village

The Village of Solvay operates its own electric utility, listed by the New York Department of Public Service as Village of Solvay (Electric). It asks customers to report emergencies on 315-468-6229, which forwards automatically to an after hours number when no one is available, with 315-545-5115 as a backup emergency number.

Section 4.4 of the OCWA Customer Rules states that the curb stop valve may not be used by the customer to turn the water on or off and is to be operated exclusively by an Authority employee. Section 4.5 requires the customer to install two shutoff valves, the first inside the building wall no further than 12 inches from that wall, and the second adjacent to the meter.
