Happy Public Power Week!
This week we celebrate Washington’s Public Utility Districts. Locally owned, not-for-profit utilities that put people and community first. Public Power means reliable, affordable, community-driven service. Here’s to a week of celebrating your PUDs.

WPUDA Congratulates Darin Hall @PUD3. Darin was presented with the WPUDA Good Samaritan Award for his lifesaving actions in response to a co-worker who was choking. Hall instinctively used his first aid training to jump into action and perform the Heimlich maneuver.
