Clark Public Utilities is a customer-owned utility providing electric and water service in Clark County, Washington. The utility is a municipal corporation organized under laws of the state of Washington. It was formed by a vote of the people in 1938. The utility is governed by a three-member elected board of commissioners. Each member serves a six-year term with one of the positions open every two years. The utility consists of three separate operating systems, which are financially independent of each other: * Electric Distribution - serving approximately 211,000 customers. * Electric Generation - The River Road Generating Plant in Vancouver produces 250MW. * Water - serving approximately 37,000 customers. Clark Public Utilities has worked hard to cut operating costs. As a result, we operate much more efficiently than other public utility districts in Washington.
