Employee Karl Oberloh dies unexpectedly
On Oct. 21, Karl Oberloh, a long-time PGE employee who worked in Transmission & Reliability Support, died unexpectedly at the age of 52. He experienced a heart attack while vacationing with family in Arizona.
Oberloh worked 26 years for PGE. Since 2003, he served as a control area operator at the System Control Center. But he spent most of his PGE years at the Trojan Plant. When he joined PGE in 1980, he started work as an entry-level operator and later was promoted to shift manager.
"Karl was a key member of the Trojan Operations staff. He worked with us through all the plant's phases from power operation to plant shutdown, and then stayed on to help with the transition to dry fuel storage," says Steve Nichols, general manager, Trojan Decommissioning & Hydro Operations. "He will be greatly missed by his Trojan friends."
