Orange County REMC is working in several areas across our service territory, performing system upgrades and maintenance. All REMC crews and contracted personnel carry identification, and their vehicles are marked with our logo. Please keep our crews save and drive with caution as all this work means extra utility vehicles along roadways.

Meter change-out

We in the middle of our five-year plan to upgrade member meters to new digital meters. These new meters require less maintenance and report outages more accurately. Crews are currently working in the Livonia and Huron areas. 

Please note that when your meter is changed out, it does cause a brief disruption in service.  We appreciate your patience. Please feel free to contact the REMC office with any questions.

Pole testing

The pole testing program is complete for this cycle. 

Brush control

The REMC crews are continuing vegetation management in the areas served by the Abydel and Valeene substation. 

High-speedĀ internet service

Orange County Fiber continues to make progress in bringing fiber optic internet to our members. More access to this much-needed service is being added daily. Please visit our fiber website, www.orangecountyfiber.coop, to see where crews are currently working and when service will be available in your area.
