Fake Geese, Drones, and Glow-in-the-Dark Markers: How EWEB Protects Birds from Powerlines
As part of EWEB's relicensing requirements for the Carmen-Smith Hydroelectric Project, we are reducing the risk of birds colliding with electricity.
It's called an FUV, a fun utility vehicle. And we are so having FUN! We are proud to have a small fleet of electric vehicles. Two to be exact.
EWEB exceeded drinking water safety standards in 2021 for every type of contaminant regulated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Oregon Health Authority. The utility has never failed to meet the standards.
As a public utility, it is important EWEB check in with customers to see how we are performing. We invite you to share your feedback and opinions.
