12 VIRGINIA STATEWIDE ELECTED OFFICIALS Timothy M. Kaine Governor of Virginia Term: Dear Fellow Virginians: From the establishment of the first settlement at Jamestown, Virginia was built upon the spirit of cooperation individuals working together to face challenges and achieve common goals for the good of all. It was with this spirit that rural Virginians formed electric cooperatives to bring electricity to their families and neighbors. Today, over half a million of our citizens continue to depend on the member-owned co-ops for the energy to heat and light their homes and power their farms and businesses. Energy is the lifeblood of our Commonwealth and its economic wellbeing. As Governor, I challenge my fellow Virginians to continue to make efficient use of energy a top priority. I applaud the efforts of Virginia s electric cooperatives to educate their members on how to reduce their energy consumption and to help find economically and environmentally sound solutions to meet our growing energy needs. I further commend the Association of Electric Cooperatives for publishing this 2009 Legislative Guide and Virginia s 13 locally-owned electric cooperatives for making it available to their members. If we are to meet the challenges facing our Commonwealth, all of our citizens must keep abreast of legislation and share their ideas and concerns with their elected representatives. I encourage you to get involved and make sure your voice is heard. My best wishes for the continued success of the electric cooperatives and their members throughout our great Commonwealth in Sincerely, Timothy M. Kaine, Governor of Virginia Office of the Governor Patrick Henry Building, 3rd Floor 1111 East Broad Street Richmond, VA (804) William T.

16 VIRGINIA S ELECTRIC COOPERATIVES Electric cooperatives provide safe and reliable electric service to both rural and suburban areas throughout the Commonwealth. Virginia s 13 consumer-owned electric cooperatives provide electricity to over 450,000 meters serving more than a million of the citizens of the Commonwealth residing in 68 of 95 counties. Electric cooperatives are notfor-profit organizations with revenues in excess of expenses being returned to their consumers. Electric cooperatives and their members are major taxpayers in the state and pay tens of millions in state and local taxes each year. Members of cooperative boards of directors are elected by their consumer-owners. These elected representatives of the co-op membership are responsible for seeing that the cooperative is efficiently and effectively operated and maintained. The distribution cooperatives are public service companies and are regulated by the Virginia State Corporation Commission. Electric cooperatives have a strong commitment to their communities and support, among many other things, educational opportunities for area youth. Over 1,000 Virginia youths have been sent to Richmond and Washington, DC, on week-long legislative education trips sponsored by the electric cooperatives. This legislative guide helps fulfill the cooperatives educational mission by informing consumers about legislators and the legislative process. Old Dominion Electric Cooperative is the wholesale power supplier to 9 of the state s 13 electric cooperatives and one Maryland and one Delaware cooperative. Old Dominion owns 11.6 percent of the North Anna Nuclear Power Station and owns half of the $1.2 billion coal-fired Clover Power Station in Halifax County. Old Dominion also owns three combustion-turbine power plants, one in Maryland and two in Virginia. The electric cooperatives are committed to providing environmentally sound energy. Over $350 million of the cost of the Clover Power Station was for environmental safeguards. Old Dominion operates an energy conservation program in partnership with its members that can reduce peak loads by more than 10 percent. With this publication, and through strong local efforts, Virginia s 13 electric cooperatives are continuing to work to serve their consumer-owners.
