Tariff Update

Tariff Updates Go Into Effect Aug. 1

    Eastern Iowa REC recently updated its electric tariff, which will become effective August 1, 2024. The electric tariff documents the REC’s rules and policies for electric service.  As part of this update, some of the REC’s fees have been modified.

Posting Fee

    If a member fails to timely pay their electric bill, which causes the REC to post a disconnection notice at the member’s residence, the member will be charged a $150 fee.

Disconnection Fee

    Eastern Iowa REC requests members provide at least 48-hour advance notice to disconnect service.  Members who do not provide advance notice, or are disconnected involuntarily, will be charged a disconnection fee.  If disconnected remotely, the member will be charged a $50 fee.  If disconnected manually, the member will be charged a $150 fee.

Reconnection Fee

    Following disconnection, if a member requests service reconnected, the member will be charged a reconnection fee.  If reconnected remotely, the member will be charged a $50 fee.  If reconnected manually during regular working hours, the member will be charged a $150 fee.  If any portion of reconnection occurs after regular working hours, the member will be charged a $300 fee. 

Service Call Fee

    Finally, if a member requests REC investigate a service issue and the issue is found to be caused by the member’s equipment rather than REC facilities, the member will be charged a $150.00 fee during regular working hours and $300.00 during overtime hours, plus the cost of any materials used.
