For convenience, all State of Oregon agency websites use Google Translate to enable easy translation of agency websites. Please note that on the Oregon Public Utility Commission's website, the eDocket section of the site is unable to be translated as it's hosted externally.

Translation Services at PUC Events

To encourage wider participation in our activities, the Commission provides live English to Spanish translation services on rate-case public comment hearings for Oregon’s largest regulated utilities: PacifiCorp, Portland General Electric, and Northwest Natural. This service includes live translation of the hearing and public comments made.

For all other events, Spanish translation services may be requested. To request translation services, please send an email to puc.hearings@puc.oregon.gov or call 503-378-6678. A two-week advance notice to arrange translation service is preferred as service may not be available on short notice. The Commission will make best efforts to provide services. 

Written comments will be accepted in our dockets in languages other than English and will be translated through software services. Please allow one week for comments to be translated and posted in the appropriate docket.
