Pinehurst North Carolina is a world-famous golf resort community in Moore County — the same county where the 2022 substation attacks by gunmen cut power to 45,000 customers. The community is in the Fort Liberty (Fort Bragg) military zone of southeastern North Carolina. Moore County's electrical infrastructure attack highlighted how easily physical attacks on unguarded substations can create regional power emergencies.
