On July 4, our nation will commemorate and celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. The journey toward this historic milestone is an opportunity to pause and reflect on our nation's past, honor the contributions of all Americans, and look ahead toward the future we want to create for the next generation and beyond.
Bonneville has a lot to celebrate. We helped electrify the Northwest, enabled ship and airplane building to support the allied victory of WWII, provided low-cost, reliable power for nearly 90 years, and produced many technological advancements that have become industry standards.
