Benton PUD Customer Service Representatives and the Community Action Connections will provide information and assistance on Benton PUD’s low-income senior and low-income disabled discounts.  Customers can receive one-on-one enrollment help and income verification from the Community Action Connections.
 
The low-income monthly discounts are 10%, 15% or 25% based on their household total annual income.
 
The low-income senior discount qualifications are based on annual household income and age (62+).  The low income disabled discount qualifications are based on annual household income and a qualifying disability of the customer or member of the household.  Income verification is required and is completed by the Community Action Connections.
 
There will also be presentations at the Benton PUD Kennewick Auditorium on Weatherization & Home Automation at 9:30 a.m. and the Columbia Basin Veterans Stand Down at 10:50 a.m.  Blood pressure checks, Community Center information and Conservation tips will be available at the Benton PUD Prosser Auditorium.
 
Senior customers will receive a packet with information on electrical safety, energy saving tips and other items. Coffee, juice and cookies will be served.
