It’s the SEASON FINALE, and to celebrate the conclusion of another wonderful season of Public Power Underground we invited a special guest of honor, Susan Ackerman, to join us for an after dark, mailbag episode.
Susan recently announced her retirement from her role as Eugene Water and Electric Board’s (EWEB) Chief Energy Officer. To celebrate her career and ask her deeply personal and occasionally inappropriate questions the Underground invited a cast of extraordinary characters from around the region to join the underground for the happy-hour-ish episode.
Joining us for the episode were:

Karen Heim, PPC’s Office Administrator and Public Power Underground’s Editor-at-Large
Therese Hampton, PGP’s Executive Director who is making a debut appearance on Public Power Underground
Megan Capper, EWEB’s Energy Resources Manager and Hero of the Underground
Matt Schroettnig, EWEB’s Power Resources Counsel and member of the Anadromous Championship circle
Humaira Falkenberg, Pacific Count PUD’s Power Resource Manager and enthusiastic public power advocate
Betsy Bridge, NRU’s General Counsel emeritus and newly recruited Executive Producer for Public Power Underground
Crystal Ball, BPA’s Fish & Wildlife Program Director and newly recruited Brand Manager for Public Power Underground
Megan Stratman, NRU’s Rates & Policy Director and Special -all-the-topics-she’s-willing-to-talk-about-Correspondent
