LEXINGTON, Neb. – Dawson Public Power District will temporarily suspend electrical disconnections for nonpayment in response to the COVID-19 crisis.

“COVID-19 has changed life as we knew it,” said Dawson PPD Consumer Accounts and Records Supervisor Connie Hird. “Dawson PPD wants to help. The District will not disconnect customers with a past due balance during this crisis. However, we do encourage customers to please continue to make payments as they are able because their account balance will add up over time.”

Dawson PPD will notify its customers when the disconnect process is reinstated. Customers will still see a disconnection notice on their past due statement during this temporary suspension. If a customer is unsure of their account balance, they are encouraged to call Dawson PPD at 308-324-2386.

The Dawson PPD Lexington office is closed to walk-in traffic but will continue to answer phone calls and conduct business. Customers may securely pay by debit/credit card or check over the phone at 866-999-4497. Payment may also be sent in the mail or paid electronically through Dawson PPD’s online bill payment system, SmartHub. This is a free service and a convenient solution for customers wanting to pay their bill electronically and monitor their electrical use. Visit DawsonPower.com for details.
