However, as the water rights system continues to be scrutinized, recent legislative proposals to change the water rights system would remove that certainty.

Electric vehicles continue to grow in popularity, but there are still many barriers that prevent the transportation sector from making the complete switch from gas vehicles. And with mandates on electric vehicle sales coming in 2035, electric vehicles will not be going away. To help remove some of these barriers, TID is leveraging credits from the state to fund an Electric Vehicle Program – offering rebates, information, and even the opportunity to test drive an electric vehicle, to our customers. On this episode we discuss California’s shift to electric vehicles, how TID is removing barriers for customers to drive an EV, and what the District is doing to incorporate EVs into its vehicle fleet.

But, your first actual interaction with TID, either by phone or out in the community is likely going to be with a Customer Service Representative. Each day, TID Customer Service Representatives have contact with hundreds of customers over the phone and in-person, process hundreds of payments and applications, and succeed at making even a dreaded “customer service call” an enjoyable experience.On this episode we discuss the role of TID’s customer service team, the types of calls and interactions customer service reps have daily, and new initiatives that have been implemented to make the customer experience with TID even better.

Much like the way you need a license to drive a vehicle, Hydropower facilities like the Don Pedro Project require licenses from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to operate. Only, waiting in line at the DMV would be a treat compared to the hydropower Relicensing process in which TID, in partnership with the Modesto Irrigation District, has been working on for more than a decade. We’ll dive into what the relicensing process is, why it’s important to the District and our customers, what we’ve accomplished in the process thus far, and what’s next.
