So, while we don't exactly stand out in the crowd, we like to think
we are good citizens. Most of our system is hidden in the ground.
But, on our way to California we pay $2.1 million a year in taxes
to Pacific Northwest counties. More than half of that goes to
support local schools. In fact, in some counties we are the
largest single taxpayer.
The next time you meet one of our people we would like you to
remember this ad. It's an introduction to a good neighbor and
a solid citizen of the Northwest.
