NV Energy Green Cross Program - Are you or permanent members <strong>of</strong> your household<br />

A customer service representative will send you an enrollment packet through<br />
certified mail for you to complete and return in order to sign up for the Green Cross<br />
program. Once enrolled, you will receive advance notification <strong>of</strong> scheduled electric<br />
outages for service maintenance and in the event <strong>of</strong> an unexpected power outage,<br />
we will take the steps necessary to restore power as quickly as possible.<br />
We are always working to provide you with reliable electric service but<br />
unfortunately, power outages caused by bad weather or equipment failures do<br />
happen. Because <strong>of</strong> these unexpected events we ask people who rely on life-support<br />
devices to protect themselves against occasional interruptions <strong>of</strong> service by having<br />
an alternate power supply.<br />
