Position Vacancy - Commonwealth Utilities Corporation
Job Type: Job Openings
> More info about this job
|
Commonwealth Utilities Corporation
More Info
The Commonwealth Utilities Corporation (CUC) is a state government corporation that operates the electric power, water and wastewater services on the three main islands of the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI) ??? Saipan, Tinian, and Rota. The CNMI is one of five U.S. territories (which include Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, and American Samoa). CUC is an autonomous agency of the CNMI government. As an autonomous agency, the CUC has an independent Board of Directors, who are appointed by the Governor, whose members serve a concurrent four?year term.
Through a transition period between U.S. Trust Territory management and after the ratification of the CNMI Covenant, in 1975, the CNMI enacted legislation creating CUC. Due to a number of delays in actual implementation, the CUC did not take over operations until October 1987, which up to that time operated under the Department of Public Works. In the Special Representatives Agreement negotiated between the governments of the CNMI and the United States in July 1985, the CNMI government agreed that utility systems would operate on a full cost recovery basis within three years after passage of the enabling legislation. To date, CUC has yet to achieve full cost recovery.
