Community Service in Action
Concern for the community is one of the seven cooperative principles in which OREMC was founded. OREMC works to uphold that principle in numerous ways throughout the year—supporting schools, donations to local events and fundraisers, hosting our annual golf tournament, providing grants through the OREMC Foundations. Recently a dozen employees participating in a management development class had a more immersive experience.

Lineworkers are Wired for Service
In the quiet hours before dawn breaks, while many of us are still nestled in our beds, lineworkers begin their day, often clad in flame-resistant clothing, safety goggles, rubber gloves and thick, heavy boots. They are the individuals who epitomize dedication to service in its purest form.
Be Ready for Storm Season
OREMC crews are always prepared and standing by to respond should power outages occur in our area. When severe storms cause power disruptions, our line crews take all necessary precautions before they get to work on any downed lines. We encourage you to also practice safety and preparedness to protect your family during storms and outages.
