NEPPA Starts 2016 with Three New Utility Members

Welcome to Our Newest Utility Members

• North Attleborough Electric Department provides electric service within the 19-square-mile Town of North Attleborough, Mass., serving a population of 28,000 with about 13,000 meters.

"We’re delighted to re-join NEPPA," said NAED General Manager James Moynihan. "We’ve utilized NEPPA continuously in the past for providing training for our employees, and have valued that relationship. We also recognize the value of having a single voice representing our legislative and industry interests in both New England and D.C."

• Norwood Municipal Light Department serves the town of Norwood, Massachusetts' 30,000 population with about 15,000 meters covering 10.4 square miles. "We’re very happy to be members," said Norwood Light’s Superintendent Jim Collins, who cited NEPPA’s training programs as a significant factor in the decision to become a first-time member.

"I’ve been here for close to 40 years, and we’ve always used NEPPA’s safety programs," Collins said, adding that it made sense to join and take advantage of the lower member program rates.

• The Village of Northfield Electric Department serves about 1,900 customers in the Vermont towns of Northfield, Berlin and Moretown. Jeff Schulz is Manager of this first-time NEPPA member utility, whose Northfield location is home to Norwich University.
