Attention Members – Meter Changeouts

Cooperative Development Contracted for 811 Locates
PKM Electric Cooperative has contracted Cooperative Development 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.
