"When the utility needs something done, Eric is who they call on because his morals and work ethic speak volumes. Eric is not a person you have to worry about slacking when supervision is away, and you can depend on him for anything. From doing his walk around to jobsite set-up to showing up every day. When asked to travel, Eric is first on the list because of dependability and trust. Eric is a valued member of our team."

"Richard is always communicating with me on all aspects of his job good and bad, by keeping me informed of what's going on with his contract. He's also a great communicator with the forester he works for. The power company speaks highly of Richard as well."

“Michael shows respect not in just words, but in how he listens, responds to constructive criticism, and how he treats other crew members. "

"Richard has exemplified the core value of unity in an exceptional way this quarter. After relocating from Klickitat County to Jefferson County to meet the needs of our region, he stepped into a completely new environment with unfamiliar crews and immediately fostered a welcoming, cohesive team culture. He transformed what is often a difficult out-of-town assignment into a crew that employees want to be part of. Richard’s commitment to bringing people together, supporting them, and creating a strong, unified work environment makes him an outstanding candidate for the unity award."
