Serious enough to prompt PSE to ask for conservation measures. All garbage pickup is postponed as well. Shell's Anacortes refinery is shutting down.

Probably easier said than done. Besides, we are helping out a good ally as they are still recovering from the power generation loss from the 2011 earthquake disaster.

Hopefully the pipeline will be back up in a short period.
