Capital Credits Retirement

SVEC's Board of Directors recently approved the retirement of capital credits for current and former members who had service in 1987 and 1988. Current members will see a capital credits refund in the form of a statement credit on their November, 2026 bill. Members with multiple accounts can call our office to have a credit balance transferred, if desired. Former members will be sent a check in the mail near the beginning of December.

 

Pole Testing - October & November, 2026

Beginning October 6, 2026, a third-party contractor, Osmose, will be conducting testing on SVEC poles. Through the end of November, you may see Osmose crews working along SVEC lines from Alturas to New Pine Creek, and from Alturas to Canby. This routine testing helps us identify and address potential issues with our poles so we can continue providing safe, reliable service to our members. Thank you for your cooperation.
