RE: The aftermath of the first snow. Look at all those trees we had to cut off the line ...

in #appics5 years ago

We don’t encourage homeowners to just go cutting trees down close to the powerlines. We have a tree trimming program, that every year we hire a tree trimming company to come in and clean the right-of-way. It’s amazing how many people don’t want you to trim their trees. I guess they would rather have a long power outage. Lol. We do our own tree permitting, so we drive out the whole system looking for problem areas. We do a lot more than most utilities do. Keeps the brush cleared underneath is one thing, but cutting down tall trees... I don’t recommend it unless you hire some professionals.
