Out of the wilds they came, clothes in tatters and famished for a home- cooked meal. The food in the camps was good, but not that good.

This includes making necessary changes to its operations to limit the potential spread of the virus, while they continue to provide uninterrupted service to their members. NHEC continues to coordinate its COVID-19 response efforts with New Hampshire state officials, and is closely monitoring this fluid situation. NHEC’s mission is to provide members the ability to access affordable, re- liable electric service options that support and simplify their lives. To do this, they need to protect the health and welfare of employees, members and the com- munities they serve. NHEC recognizes that the COVID-19 pandemic is likely to have a significant impact on the economy and cause stress and financial challenges for many members. To assist members who are struggling financially due to this pandem- ic, NHEC is suspending late payment charges and service disconnections for non-payment. Members who are having difficulty paying their bills are encouraged to con- tact NHEC through www.nhec.com or by calling (800) 698-2007, to learn about bill assistance programs, special payment arrangements, and community support services that are available. “We appreciate our members’ understanding and patience, as NHEC responds to this public health crisis, while continuing to provide our communities with the electricity they need,” said Steve Camerino, president and CEO of NHEC. “We encourage all our members to follow public health officials’ guidance on what they can do to protect themselves and their community.” NHEC is a member-owned electric distribution cooperative serving 84,000 homes and businesses in 115 New Hampshire communities. Headquartered in Plymouth, their business is to keep, maintain and service 5,600 miles of ener- gized line in order to provide members with the best possible service.
