 Up to 20-thousand customers at a time were without power during that two hour rolling black out after Christmas.  LUS, Cleco and Slemco customers were affected by the outage.   A malfunction in an Entergy power line which connects in Acadiana triggered the outage.

KPEL's Suzanne Ferrara spoke to LUS Director Terry Huval about whether he expects another outage will occur.
