About half of Louisiana was without power on Aug. 30 as Tropical Storm Isaac moved inland.
The Public Service Commission said 903,000 homes and businesses around the state — about 47 percent of all customers — were without power.
Entergy says that included about 686,000 of its customers. Another 87,000 were customers of Cleco Corp.
Nearly all customers were without power in Plaquemines, St. Bernard and St. John the Baptist parishes, while at least three-quarters of homes and businesses had power outages in Iberville, East Feliciana, Jefferson, Lafourche, Orleans, St. Charles, St. James, St. Tammany, Tangipahoa, Terrebonne and West Feliciana parishes.
