The general administrator of the Dominican Electricity Corporation, Radhames Segura said that the technical problems that affected the Smith-Enron and Dominican Power private generators have been resolved. These problems caused the companies to cut their generation, which resulted in a resurgence of the long blackouts that Dominicans had begun to forget about. Segura said that the ten-day crisis is over and the power should be restored, with a significant reduction in outages. He said that power demand has increased 10%, and that on line again are about 1,400 megawatts. Demand is approximately 1,500 megawatts.
