United Electric Cooperative

Hazard Mitigation Plan
Section 1: Introduction
United Electric is a rural electric cooperative with more than 4,000 miles of distribution lines that provide power to about 10,000 customers in northwest Missouri and southwest Iowa.

United Electric was established in 1997 with the consolidation of Nodaway Worth Electric and Northwest Missouri Electric. The cooperative has offices in Maryville, Mo., and Savannah, Mo. The service territory includes portions of Andrew, Buchanan, Clinton, DeKalb, Gentry, Holt, Nodaway and Worth counties in Missouri. United also serves about 500 customers in the southern portions of three Iowa counties – Page, Ringgold and Taylor; however, this plan will focus only on Missouri operations.

The cooperative is a member of Touchstone Energy cooperatives, a nationwide alliance of not-for-profit electric cooperatives dedicated to the highest level of customer service and commitment. United is governed by a board of nine directors. They are President Gary Hull, Vice President John Redman, Secretary Jerry Fine, Treasurer John Killgore, and members Jerry Kerns, Norbert Schmitz, Pat Hardy, Phillip Jensen, Karl Noellsch, Frank Schieber, Allen Schneider and Joseph West.

The mission statement is:

“We, the Board and Employees of United Electric Cooperative, Inc., are committed to provide quality service. We pledge, through teamwork, to promote a healthy work environment, a good company image and a positive attitude by demonstrating mutual respect for ourselves and our members. We pledge to exceed the future needs of our customers.”

United Electric has 55 employees with staff based at both the Savannah and Maryville offices. An office is also located in Grant City, with one service person based there but no regular business hours. Figure 1 shows the cooperative’s service territory.

Figure 1
The cooperative buys all of its electricity from NW Electric Power Cooperative. United has 22 substations throughout the service territory with approximately 4,000 miles of electric distribution line and about 400 miles of buried line. The cooperative has about 1,400 miles of fiber and also provides wireless internet and satellite services. In addition, United has rural sewer in some subdivisions, but this plan will focus only on the electric portion of the business. About 99 % of United’s customers are residential users and about 1 % are commercial users. Table 1.1 shows the number of meters by county for United’s service territory.

The average monthly customer usage is 1,125 kilowatt hours. Annual total usage in 2009, the last year with figures available, was 155 million kilowatt hours, with about 118 million kilowatt hours for residential use.

Section 2: Planning Process
Mo-Kan Regional Council was contracted to facilitate a hazard mitigation planning process with United Electric and prepare a portion of the plan to be included in the statewide mitigation plan for electric cooperatives through a partnership with the Association of Missouri Electric Cooperatives and Missouri Association of Councils of Government.

United Electric and Mo-Kan representatives had their first meeting on January 26, 2011, at NW Electric as part of regional kick-off meeting for the statewide plan. This informational meeting provided the basic responsibilities for each agency and allowed for initial discussion concerning the project timelines, data collection and other pertinent topics.

The next meeting was held March 10, 2011, at United’s office in Savannah. The final meeting was Sept. 16, 2011, also at United’s Savannah office. Table 1.2 summarizes the attendees and topics of each meeting. Meeting minutes are available in the chapter appendix.

Public Involvement

Public involvement in creating United Electric’s hazard mitigation plan was encouraged throughout a variety of methods. The local chapter was posted on the cooperative’s web site, inviting members and the general public to comment. Print copies were also made available upon request through the local office. Comments from neighboring jurisdictions and those jurisdictions where the cooperative operates were solicited through the standard AMEC letter. The letter was mailed to the appropriate contacts, including:

Andrew County Commission

Buchanan County Commission

Clinton County Commission

DeKalb County Commission

Gentry County Commission

Holt County Commission

Nodaway County Commission

Worth County Commission
