EDI (Electronic Data Interchange)

No documented public EDI program. As a 41,500-customer municipal utility, CLPUD falls below the size where formal EDI trading partner programs (814, 820, 867, 810) are typically maintained. Alternatives: regular Green Button exports or a negotiated custom data exchange agreement (CSV/XML/JSON over SFTP, API, or email).
