   NE: 911 Service Restored Across The Panh

   911 service has been restored in the Panhandle after being out for   
   about 10 hours Thursday night and Friday morning in all areas except   
   Scottsbluff-Gering.   
      
   911 service went down about 5:30 pm and was back up around 3:30   
   am. All non-emergency administrative lines at the Chadron Police   
   Station/Dispatch Center were also out during that time.   
      
   Chadron Police Chief Rick HIckstein says the Chadron center used the   
   department’s Facebook page and the emergency phone notification   
   call-and-text system to let the public know of the problem. The voice   
   call described it as nine hundred eleven service.   
      
   ...   
      
   Hickstein says his dispatchers were first told of the outage not by   
   CenturyLink, but by their counterparts in Alliance and Rushville.   
      
   The company also didn’t notify them when service was restored; the   
   dispatchers had been testing it periodically all night and noticed the   
   system was working again about 3:00.
