This morning, several customers reported receiving phone calls from CMD claiming that the entire system will have no service today.

THESE CALLS DID NOT COME FROM CMD. CMD's system is not going to be cutoff today.

We do not have working phone numbers for several of the customers involved. We do not know where the calls are coming from.

The only area expected to experience a service interruption is the Hwy 901 corridor in the Richburg/Lando/Edgemoor area.
