Important Information About Procedures for Opening a New Account

To help the government fight identity theft of our members, and to protect the identity of our members, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. Electric Utility Companies have been identified as falling within the covered institutions of this law.

What this means for you: When you open an account, we will ask for your name, address, date of birth, and other information that will allow us to identify you. We may also ask to see your driver's license or other identifying documents.
