The day the power went out

I was reading the July issue of Gulf Business magazine the other day at the barbershop. On page 12 there was a two line report that said business losses from the June less-than-8-hour power outage were estimated to be $75 million.

Hard to believe. Does anyone have information on how that estimate was formed?
