Power was restored to all Osawatomie residences and businesses shortly after midnight Saturday, Oct. 28, ending a three-day nightmare for 250 to 300 residents who were left in the dark. A critical failure at the city of Osawatomie’s power plant substation caused the initial power outages in the overnight hours of Tuesday, Oct. 24, into Wednesday, Oct. 25. On Wednesday morning, power was restored to some neighborhoods through the city’s generators, but a secondary equipment failure impacting the generators triggered another outage, according to the city’s updates.
