Public Utility District No. 1 of Douglas County was established in 1936 and engages in:
• Distribution of electricity to more than 17,000 customers in Douglas County through its
Electric Distribution System.
• Ownership and operation of the Wells Hydroelectric Project on the Columbia River.
Thirty-eight percent of the electricity generated by the project is retained for sale through
the distribution system to consumers in Douglas County, Okanogan Public Utility District
and other electric utilities.
• Distribution of water to some Douglas County residents.
• Operation of a high-speed communication system. The system is used for utility
purposes and by wholesale customers who sell retail services to Douglas County
residents.
A three-member Board of Commissioners is the policy-making body for the District. The
Commission appoints a Manager who is responsible for the oversight and management of the
District’s approximately 165 employees and $53 million annual operating budget.
