Other information

Before the cooperative can build an electric line, the electrician responsible for the electrical work must provide the cooperative with a South Dakota Wiring Certificate.
Easements must be on file in the cooperative office allowing the cooperative to place poles and down guys on the members land or on neighboring properties. Obtaining easements will be the responsibility of the member requesting service. Cooperative personnel will help if needed.
The cooperative will build the first 1,320 feet (1/4 mile) of line. Any line required beyond the 1,320 feet is billed to the member at $2.00 per foot.
All fees must be paid and all paperwork completed before work will start on a line.
The $250 prepayment will be credited towards usage for this account.
