A hurricane warning was in effect for Morgan City, Louisiana, to Ocean Springs, Mississippi, including metropolitan New Orleans.

Sally was bearing down on the Gulf Coast as dozens of industrial plant owners were still assessing damage caused by Hurricane Laura, which made landfall on August 27. The pace of power line restorations is expected to pick up in the areas most impacted by the storm, according to Industrial Info's industry experts.
Hurricane Laura, the most powerful storm to hit the Louisiana Coast in more than a century, made landfall at Cameron, Louisiana, near the Texas border. The storm forced outages, shutdowns and evacuations for numerous land-based and offshore industrial processing plants along the Louisiana and Southeast Texas coasts.

Industrial Info has gathered and summarized some of the damage that is noticeable from satellite imagery and paired that with its unique plant identification for each.

Entergy Corporation (NYSE:ETR) (New Orleans, Louisiana) reported on September 10 that it was making progress in restoring power in Calcasieu and Cameron parishes, which bore the brunt of the hurricane. The power company said about 23,000 customer outages had been restored, but 70,000 outages remained.
Entergy said it energized the first of its transmission lines into the Lake Charles area on September 9. "This will allow more customers to begin receiving power in Southwest Louisiana as the remaining transmission lines continue to be rebuilt," the company said.
Cleco Corporate Holdings LLC (Pineville, Louisiana) said on Friday it had restored power to 99% of its 140,000 customers who were affected by the hurricane.
Sempra Energy's (NYSE:SRE) (San Diego, California) Cameron LNG facility in Hackberry, Louisiana remained shut down as of last week. While the liquefied natural gas processing facility did not incur significant damage, the timing of its restoration depends on the availability of power and the reopening of area waterways.
"I expect to see the pace of line restoration to start moving faster," said Jesus Davis, IIR's research specialist for North American Oil & Gas Production, Pipelines and Terminals industries. "Once the first goes up, I think that the next few will quickly follow until they get to the last one or two more difficult ones."
