CenturyLink services may experience intermittent disruptions throughout the day in voice, 911, and data services as we continue with the restoration effort. We are working to restore service as soon as possible and apologize for the inconvenience this may cause our customers and the islands.

CenturyLink has technicians on Lopez, Orcas, and San Juan Island working around the clock for the restoration effort. CenturyLink’s priority is and continues to be full restoration of communications as quickly as possible.  CenturyLink continues to augment voice and data capacity through alternative communications facilities as fast as they become available in addition to the fiber restoration activities.

If you have an emergency and are not able to reach 911:

  • Lopez Fire district at 360.468.2991 or go to the main station at 2228 Fisherman Bay Rd. in Lopez Village.
  • Orcas Island Fire District at 360.376.2331 or go to the fire station located at 45 Lavender Lane, Eastsound.
  • San Juan Island at 360.378.5334 or the fire station located at 1011 Mullis St, Friday Harbor.
