Local Wisconsin Public Service workers are headed to Puerto Rico for restoration efforts in the country following Hurricane Maria.

Nearly four-months after the story hit the U.S. Army says 40% of customers there are still without electricity.

About 55 employees are deploying to the country to join the nationwide efforts. They'll spend six weeks helping to restore power.
