Manager’s Report – September 2018

Fires, infrastructure and mutual aid

Roger KlineOur community experienced some of the worst fires in our region’s history this year.

The devastation and tragedy experienced by some of our friends and neighbors will never be forgotten.

Your electric system infrastructure did not go unscathed, but through hard work, determination and much grace we were able to keep the damage to a minimum. Most of our time, like yours, was spent lending aid to our neighbors and supporting our fellow community members where we could. At the end of the day, we’re a community of caring people. It doesn’t matter what logo may be on the side of your bucket-truck, we support each other for the betterment of the entire community.

So, many thanks to you, our customer-owners who may have had to wait for your individual project to be completed while we provided mutual aid to our neighbors, and many thanks to your PUD staff that live the motto of public service every day.

Happy September everyone, please stay safe.
