(IID Celebrates next week)...October 3-9 is Public Power Week.

The Imperial Irrigation District, along with 2,000 other community-powered, not for profit electric utilities will be celebrating. IID Energy Manager Marilyn Gilbert says this year the IID will be celebrating the employees of the IID, the people behind public power. She said these are the people who work tirelessly to keep the community up and running 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Gilbert says the dedicated staff members from various disciplines pull together with a common goal of keeping the lights on. In honor of Public Power Week, IID's residential and commercial customers can receive an extra $50 rebate for each qualifying energy efficiency measure they purchase during the month of October.
