NEWS IN BRIEF...
ORANGE PARK TEAM PLACES AT 2013 LINEMAN
COMPETITION... Clay Electric had three teams and one apprentice
competing
at the 2013
Florida Lineman
Competition
on April 20 in
Jacksonville.
Despite the cold,
rainy weather,
the teams did
an excellent job,
according to
General Manager
Ricky Davis. The
Orange Park
team consisting

Baldree pose with their trophies from the 2013
Florida Lineman Competition.
of Jared Baldree, Cody McLendon and Dustin Shepherd took
second place in the vertical hurtman rescue and third place in
the crossarm change out. There were 23 teams representing 11
different utilities at the event. While this was the 13th annual
Florida Lineman Competition, this was only the second year
Clay Electric has participated. The competition involves five
timed events which simulate normal work procedures. Competitors
are judged on the application of safe work practices, proficiency
of their work, and speed.
PROJECT SHARE HAS HELPED MORE THAN 3,200
FAMILIES... The co-op’s Project Share program continues to
receive considerable support, thanks to the generosity of Clay
Electric members. Since the program’s inception in July 1997,
Project Share has helped 3,216 members (through first quarter
2013) with a total of $464,866 in disbursements. Just this year,
the program has assisted 15 member families. Project Share has
enabled members to help other members pay their electric bills
during a period of financial difficulty. Clay Electric collects the
Project Share donations made by members and the Salvation
Army distributes the funds based on their financial criteria. By
designating a tax-deductible amount to be added to the electric
bill each month - or by sending a one-time donation - members
can help others keep their lights on when times are tough. To
sign up for Project Share, please call your district office at the
number listed on your bill statement, or you can find out more
about the program at www.clayelectric.com/prjshare.aspx

The General Manager’s Report
Ricky Davis
Over the years, our commitment to
our members has remained strong
In March we held our 75th
Annual Meeting, and we appreciate
all our members who
attended.
We’re very proud of the fact
that we’ve been serving members
for 75 years. Clay Electric
was created in the 1930s to meet
the challenge of bringing electricity
to rural areas. Over the past
decades, Clay Electric’s board
of trustees, management and
employees have met many challenges
with the same determination
our founders had when they
went about the task of signing
up folks to join the fledgling
cooperative.
While many things have
changed in the way we serve our
members, our mission remains
the same as it was in the early
years – to bring you the best
service at competitive rates.
Legislative Session
During each annual Legislative
session, we closely follow
any proposed bills that could
help or hurt the cooperative or
its members. This year, the electric
co-ops of Florida, along with
the Florida Electric Cooperatives
Association, supported an electricity
theft bill that increased the
penalties for stealing electricity.
Currently, the criminal penalty
is a first-degree misdemeanor,
regardless of the dollar value of
the electricity stolen.
The new law allows penalties
that vary depending upon the
value of the electricity stolen.
Additionally, the law will increase
the minimum award in a
civil action against the thief from
$1,000 to $3,000, mitigating the
utility’s time and cost of recovering
its losses. The bill was signed
by the governor in April and will
take effect on Oct. 1.
MAY 2013
Co-op Owners for
Political Action
Speaking of the legislature and
politics, last year we began offering
our members the opportunity
to join a political action committee
known as Co-op Owners
for Political Action (COPA).
Groups of citizens learned
years ago that their collective
voices were often heard by lawmakers
above the voice of single
citizens. Political action committees
were formed to provide
groups of like-minded citizens
with the ability to raise funds
and help elect lawmakers who
were willing to listen to their
concerns.
By joining COPA, you become
part of a strong grassroots
network of citizens concerned
about the long-term success of
the electric cooperative program.
Maintaining our presence in the
political process is critical to the
future of the electric cooperative
program and the communities
it serves in these unpredictable
times.
A regular annual membership
in COPA is only $25. The cost
of memberships can be broken
down into small monthly payments
and added to your electric
bill statements. I encourage you
to consider joining us in our
efforts to stay involved in the
political process.
Our rates
As I have written about previously,
our rates continue to be
among the lowest in the state.
Our residential rate for 1,000
kilowatt hours is $109. This is
lower than all other cooperatives
in the state and is the 7th lowest
among all utilities in the state. In
fact, our rates are lower than all
of our neighboring utilities. We
are proud to have this competitive
rate position.
Storm season
Hurricane season begins
next month, and forecasters are
calling for an active season. Be
assured we are ready should a
major storm cause widespread
outages in our service area.
I have encouraged my department
directors to conduct an outage
simulation with line supervisors
and foremen to make sure
we are as prepared as possible to
meet the challenge of an outage.
Our simulation begins with
a transmission line problem
which impacts many feeders
and transformers. The simulated
outage situation would include
making sure all accompanying
documentation would be filled
out correctly and then checked
for accuracy.
I think this is an important
test, especially for newer employees
who were not here when
the last major storms caused
widespread, sustained outages.
Thank you
I began my career here nearly
40 years ago, and obviously I’ve
seen many changes.
This year, I am reminded of a
slogan we have displayed in our
front lobby, which reads “Proud
of the past, Prepared for the
future.” To me, this is truly what
the co-op stands for: a strong
history of providing service and
a vision for tomorrow.
We are proud of how much
we have accomplished through
the years on your behalf, and we
pledge to continue our tradition
of providing excellent service
and affordable power.
As always, we appreciate the
opportunity to serve you.
KILOWATT/3

Co-op’s 75-year history marked by
growth, ever-changing industry
In the late 1930s, nine out of 10
rural homes still were without
power. Private, investorowned
power companies served
most of the cities and were not
eager to extend their lines to
reach rural homes, farms and
businesses.
Clay Electric’s story began
when Ed Wiggins purchased
the Keystone Heights power
plant in 1925. After extending
lines to the small communities
near town, the small 115-kilowatt
generating station could
not keep up with Keystone’s
growth.
Wiggins needed money for
expansion but decided he was
not willing to sell the business
to an investor-owned utility. He
sought funding from the newlyformed
Rural Electrification Administration.
Wiggins worked
to sign up prospective members
and had maps drawn up.
Leadership and industry
changes
Clay Electric has had five
general managers: Pat Loudon
(1940-63), E.T. Martin (1963-83),
Tommy Millican (1984-88), Bill
Phillips (1989-2009) and Ricky
Davis (2009-present). A total
of 41 different members have
served on the board of trustees.
Since the early days, Clay
Electric has purchased power
from other utilities to supplement
its limited generation
capabilities. In 1968, the co-op
ceased all large-scale generation
in favor of purchasing all
its electricity needs. Today the
power comes from
Seminole Electric.
Growth
The co-op has experienced
steady growth
over most of its history.
In 1939, the co-op
served 343 members
in five counties. In
1951, that number had
grown to more than
8,000 customers.
In 1962, the co-op
had nearly 20,000 accounts,
and by 1975

Terrell, Ford Hensley, Henry Loper, Ronald Stevens,

of 52,837.
Fast forward
to 1990 and the co-op
reached 100,000. Today
the co-op serves a little
more than 165,000 accounts.
Toward technology and
efficiency
In the early decades,
members were encouraged
to purchase newfangled
electric appliances
that would improve their lives
with comfort and convenience.
By the 1970s, the focus shifted
to encourage conservation and
later it moved to efficiency. Clay
Electric instituted a load management
program in the late
1970s and early ‘80s.
This program, which allowed
the co-op to turn off water heaters
and HVAC systems in members’
homes to better manage
the demand for energy at peak
times, was eliminated in 2000.
Now, the co-op encourages
the wise use of energy through
an emphasis on efficiency
with the Energy Smart Rebate
Program, as well as educating
customers about the best way to
save energy and money.
While Clay Electric is no longer
a small, rural electric utility,
its mission in 2013 is fundamentally
unchanged: to exceed the
expectations of our members by
providing excellent customer
service and reliable electric service
at competitive rates.

Copeland’s Grocery
was a fixture on State
Road 45 just outside
Archer for many decades.
This nighttime
photograph was taken
by the Copelands’
son, John, when he
was in high school
around 1976.
Member recalls husband’s battle for Clay Electric service
Gladys Copeland remembers
when her husband fought
for Clay Electric.
She said it was in the 1940s
and one of the investor-owned
utilities wanted to come into the
Archer area. But her late husband
Henry Copeland didn’t
want to be served by them.
Mrs. Copeland said he insisted
it would be better to
have the co-op as their utility.
Problem was, the co-op wasn’t
prepared to expand that far at
the time. She recalls Henry hired
an attorney and filed a lawsuit
in order to have Clay serve their
area. At the time, Clay’s price
for electricity was less than the
for profit utility. But that wasn’t
Henry’s only motivation for
wanting Clay over the other utility.
She recalls that Henry felt
being served by a local co-op
was preferably over having electricity
provided by a company
that wasn’t local.
“I was really proud of him,”
Gladys recalls of the time. “It
brings back a lot of memories.”
The couples’ first home didn’t
have electricity, but their store
did. She remembers that Clay’s
lines stopped at another family’s
property line on the Gainesville
side of Archer.
Gladys and Henry Copeland are shown in front of their grocery store and
gas station in Archer in 1985. Mr. Copeland passed away in 1997.
After settling the matter
legally, Gladys said Clay Electric
agreed to provide the poles,
wire and electricity into the rural
area, but the co-op would not
make the installation. The co-op
dropped off the poles one day
and Henry and some local men
proceeded to set them. Soon after,
Clay Electric was providing
the electricity to the area.
Gladys has lived in Archer
for almost 69 years. Her current
home’s account was activated
almost 50 years ago. To this day
she is glad her late husband
fought to have Clay Electric
serve their area.
She said service has improved
and outages have become fewer
over the decades.
So, what’s her favorite part of
being a member of the cooperative?
Capital credits, she said,
without hesitation.
In addition to this benefit,
Gladys said she has always felt
that Clay Electric was a good,
caring company that takes care
of the customer.

Take control of your summer power
usage by following these tips...
Summer is a fun time of year, but it also
means hot, humid days, afternoon thunderstorms,
plenty of pesky mosquitoes...and
higher electricity bills.
You can’t control the heat, storms or humidity,
but you do have some control over your summertime
electricity usage.
It’s a fact that as the outdoors warms up, your
home experiences more heat gain. In response, you
adjust the thermostat to remain comfortable.
Utilities often suggest a thermostat setting of
78 degrees. Why 78? An inactive person begins to
perspire when the temperature rises above 78. But
what happens if you’re active and get too warm?
You lower the thermostat. However, for every degree
the thermostat is set below 78, the run time of
your air conditioning unit or heat pump increases
5 to 8 percent. This ups your electricity usage.
Here’s a few suggestions to help you lower your
electrical usage during the cooling season:
• Have your air conditioning system serviced
annually.
• The ductwork should be inspected to make
sure there are no duct leaks. If leaks are found,
have them sealed with approved aluminum
tape or mastic. Duct tape isn’t a fix-all for air
conditioning ductwork.
• Keep all windows and doors closed when the
air conditioner is in operation.
• Change the filter(s) monthly or whenever they
show signs of dust accumulation. Higher quality
air filters trap more dust particles, and they
need changing as often as lesser quality filters.
• Keep air supply registers open to all rooms,
even those not frequently occupied. Closing
off air supply registers increases the air
pressure on the duct system, and this ups the
chances of duct leakage.
• Keep all interior doors to rooms with supply
air registers open, unless a return air vent is
located within the room. If you keep doors to
rooms without return air vents closed, it does
not allow for adequate air circulation and the
temperature of the room will increase. Sound
familiar?
You can’t control the summer storms or the outside
humidity, but you can get a handle on your
energy usage and lower your monthly bills. As for
those pesky mosquitoes, try insect repellent!
