HARBOR, Ore. – NCUA late Friday took under conservatorship Chetco FCU, a one-time $375-million credit union in Harbor, Ore., that has wracked up big losses the past few years.
Chetco, which serves Oregon’s Coos and Curry counties, and Del Norte County in Northern California, lost $212,000 for the first six months of the year after a $17 million loss for 2010. Its assets had declined to $333 million and net worth to 5% at June 30.
NCUA said it plans to continue service at Chetco uninterrupted.
