WIN ENERGY REMC JOINS TOUCHSTONE ENERGY® ALLIANCE

On April 1, 2009 WIN Energy REMC joined the ranks of cooperative electric utilities across the country as a Touchstone Energy® cooperative. Touchstone Energy is a national alliance of local, consumer-owned electric cooperatives providing high standards of service to customers large and small. More than 640 Touchstone Energy cooperatives in 46 states are delivering energy and energy solutions to more than 30 million customers every day.

The Touchstone Energy brand will take WIN Energy and its members into the future as the electric industry changes. Electric cooperatives across the United States launched the Touchstone Energy Cooperatives brand to represent the advantages of locally owned and controlled electric service, which is rooted in the direct link that electric cooperatives like WIN Energy have with their customers. By pooling resources through the brand with other cooperative utilities, WIN Energy will be able to provide consumer information and awareness of their customer-focused services as the electric utility evolves.

When WIN Energy says "We are your Touchstone Energy Cooperative partner", it means we are committed to our members as a supplier of reliable, affordable energy services. As such, we are an advocate for our members and we support the Touchstone Energy Cooperatives values of innovation, accountability, integrity and commitment to community. The Touchstone Energy brand emphasizes WIN Energy's local presence and ties to the communities in which we serve with the added value of a nationwide network and also unites us with other preferred power providers so members are assured of the best electric service available anywhere.

Touchstone Energy is more than advertising. It is a promise to the members that co-ops will provide reliable energy services through superior customer service while being committed to the community that they serve. Touchstone Energy is a tool for building unity within the co-op family. WIN Energy REMC is proud to be a Touchstone Energy cooperative!

***UNDERGROUND LINE LOCATING***

Effective September 1, 2004, member's of WIN Energy REMC must contact the Indiana Underground Plant Protection Service (IUPPS) at (800) 382-5544 to have underground electrical lines located. This is in accordance with a recent law passed in the state of Indiana. Please call at least two working days prior to digging but no earlier than 20 calendar days before you dig.

It is the member's responsibility to notify IUPPS of any digging, whether it is a major excavation project or a simple project such as installing a fence or mailbox. If IUPPS is not notified and damage is done to the underground lines, it will be the member's responsibility to pay for the cost of the repairs. A simple call to IUPPS could save you costly damages and possibly even your life.

The Indiana Underground Plant Protection Service is a FREE statewide utility notification service that has been providing Hoosiers and member utilities a cost effective means of locating their underground utility lines for over 21 years.

For more information visit the IUPPS Web site at www.iupps.org.
