The PUD won’t cut customers off and will waive late fees if someone has lost employment as a result of this crisis, Peninsula PUD Commissioner Debbie Oakes said.
“People have enough to worry about without having to worry about having their power cut off,” Oakes said following a meeting of the PUD Board of Commissioners.
The important detail is to call the PUD and let staff know that the coronavirus has put you behind. They will help keep your power on and set up a payment plan after things return to normal.
