Mutual aid agreements are a critical step toward planning for the unexpected.

Due to recent Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) requirements to have written mutual aid agreements on file, MEUW members in need of emergency assistance should consider contacting those municipal electric utilities, rural electric cooperatives and/or private utilities who have signed the APPA/NRECA mutual aid agreement. Alliant Energy is the only private utility who has signed the agreement to date. This is a blanket agreement that has been pre-approved by FEMA.
