Umatilla Electric was proud to host students participating in the Nuts, Bolts and Thingamajigs camp today, a program hosted by the Port of Morrow. While at the Boardman Operations Center, students learned how to use specialized equipment used by line crews from Journeyman Lineman, Tony Lankford, including a hot stick, lineman’s gloves, and more. This is a continued partnership between the Port of Morrow and UEC. We’re always thrilled to showcase our team, equipment, and share about #coopcareers available for these bright students.

Umatilla Electric is thrilled to be included in this group of cooperatives that received an American Customer Satisfaction Index 2024 Customer Satisfaction Award this year. We are #UECproud. It turns out - our members are too!
Touchstone Energy® Cooperative, Inc. is proud to announce that 99 member cooperatives earned an American Customer Satisfaction Index (ACSI®) 2024 Customer Satisfaction Award* in Q1 and Q2 (2024) based on their member survey results. Members of each cooperative were asked to rate their overall satisfaction, how well the co-op lived up to their expectations, and how well the co-op measured up to their ideal co-op experience. Each co-op honored earned an ACSI score that substantially outperforms the industry average score earned by publicly measured co-op energy utilities reported in the 2024 ACSI Energy Utility Study. This honor is a testament to Touchstone Energy Cooperatives' ongoing efforts to provide the best possible member experience. Congratulations! To all electric cooperatives: please check your email inbox on Thursday, July 11, for our announcement of the top 5 ACSI® scores of Q2 2024. *Award criteria are determined by the ACSI® and are based on customers rating their satisfaction in a survey independent of the syndicated ACSI Energy Utility Study. For more about the ACSI, visit www.theacsi.org/badges. ACSI and its logo are registered trademarks of the American Customer Satisfaction Index LLC.
