CHICAGO – AUGUST 18: Parts of a Commonwealth Edison power substation are seen beyond a security fence August 18, 2003 in Chicago. After last week’s power outage that affected major portions of the northeast United States and southeast Canada, Illinois Gov. Rod R. Blagojevich has announced the creation of a Special Task Force on the Condition and Future of the Illinois Energy Infrastructure. The committee will conduct a comprehensive analysis of Illinois’ energy infrastructure, and recommend any necessary changes to meet demand and respond to widespread outages similar to the August 14 failure.
