Charlie Baker on Friday called the recovery “painful, frustrating and inconvenient.” “As these challenges per- sist, we all know the tempera- tures are dropping,” said the governor, who urged residents without heat and hot water to consider taking advantage of temporary housing being offered to them in trailers, apartments and hotels. Overnight temperatures dropped to near freezing in much of the region. Baker also called for improved communication between Columbia Gas and affected residents. Joe Albanese, who was brought in by state officials to oversee the recovery effort, said crews are ahead of sched- ule in replacing pipeline. The key stumbling block, however, has been assessing damage on a house-by-house basis and replacing damaged gas lines, burners and appliances so they are safe to receive gas. Officials say crews will now in some cases make temporary repairs to burners so heat and hot water can be restored, with the promise that the equipment will be permanently replaced at a later time. “Each day that goes past our deadline is a day too long,” said Albanese, adding that Columbia Gas is also bringing in three more contractors to add to the manpower involved in the restoration. “We understand the urgency you all have to return home and reopen your businesses.
