Attention Members – Meter Changeouts
Allegiant Utility Services will be changing meters coming up this summer/fall in the Alvarado/Oslo/Warren Area and also the Robbin area east of Donaldson. Please contact PKM with any questions or concerns at 218-745-4711.
USIC Contracted for 811 Locates
PKM Electric Cooperative has contracted USIC to do all of its 811 locates. Remember, before any digging project, such as planting trees this summer, you must call 811 at least two business days before digging to get utility lines marked and protect you from injury and expense. Safe digging is no accident. Visit www.call811.com for more information, or give us a call at PKM.
PKM has recently implemented a Phone Notification System (PNS) through CRC (Cooperative Response Center), our after-hours service. PNS will provide an efficient and inexpensive means of communicating with our membership for a variety of issues, including scheduled outages, when time allows and will also be used to contact members for past due bills.
