Storm Secure Underground Project Program

The Storm Secure Underground Program (SSUP) is one of the many ways FPL is enhancing the resiliency of its grid and the reliability of the service delivered to customers. By replacing overhead neighborhood power lines with more reliable underground lines, FPL is working to avoid the leading cause of power outages – trees and vegetation coming into contact with overhead lines. 

The program is kicking off its first phase in Cooper City. Please see the location for this first phase.

Project information:

  • Unless there is an emergency, a minimum of seven (7) days prior notice is required before any construction work can begin. In all cases, FPL and its contractor must provide door hangers at each house or business with the contact person's name and phone number.
  • Where construction equipment, trucks and personnel cross over swales, sidewalks, catch basins, aprons, private yards, etc. all restoration work must be complete to the City's satisfaction. FPL and its contractor must ensure that slopes and conditions of materials are restored to equal or better condition than before construction started.
  • This project will require new transformers to be placed on certain private property behind sidewalks. Select residents should have granted easement rights to FPL for these new transformers.
