CL&P Chief Jeffrey Butler Resigns

Jeffrey D. Butler, president of Connecticut Light & Power Co., resigned Thursday after a brutal series of weeks in which he became the focus of outrage and the public face of failures by his utility company in the wake of two paralyzing storms, Aug. 28 and Oct. 29, that left hundreds of thousands of state residents in the dark for periods as long as 11 days.
