Congratulations to BECi

Safety accreditation program scores highest in the nation

Beauregard Electric recently completed the requirements to renew its safety accreditation program for another three-year term. The Rural Electric Safety Accreditation Program (RESAP) is a peer-review safety and loss control evaluation of rural electric cooperatives.

BECi was among 185 cooperative systems throughout the United States that was evaluated for the 2002 program and earned a score of 96 out of 100, the highest among all scores recorded.
