Last week we celebrated the 90th Anniversary of the enactment of the Rural Electrification Administration with the USDA @CarrollEMC. In large part thanks to the USDA/REA, GA’s EMCs have grown from a mechanism to bring light to rural farmland to being true partners in progress. 🤝
Rural Development Georgia State Director Joyce White today presented a $58.6 million ceremonial check to Carroll Electric Membership Corporation (EMC) to expand rural electric service.

Lineworkers trained in the rain at @NorthGaEMC today, deconstructing & rebuilding a 3-phase line in full climbing gear. Grateful for the rain and hoping it heads to South GA soon, where it’s needed most.

Thank you to Georgia EMC (@Georgia_EMC) and electric membership cooperatives from across our Congressional District for visiting Capitol Hill today!
We discussed support for the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Rural Utilities Service, proposed legislation to expedite FEMA reimbursements, and the importance of permitting reform and its ability to lower costs for customers in our District.

In the EMC industry, the "cooperative spirit" shines bright during tough times, like when severe storms cause widespread outages. Mutual aid agreements allow EMCs to work as a team to restore power. Read more in the latest issue of @georgiamagazine shorturl.at/vlfXr

Ice and power lines don't mix! The weight of the ice can cause power lines to snap. In addition, ice on tree branches can cause trees to fall onto power lines, adding even more strain.

Make your emergency list and check it twice - stock nonperishable food, blankets, flashlights, batteries and gas up your car. Plan for medical needs, charge devices, and check firewood if you have a fireplace. You'll never regret being overprepared!
