Right-of-Way Maintenance Work In Progress

Our right-of-way vegetation management spray program is underway in the Steinbach, Plank Road, Lime Hill, and Evergreen substation areas.

Detailed notification letters have been mailed to all members whose properties are located in these areas. This work helps control incompatible vegetation within our rights-of-way, ensuring the continued safety and reliability of electric service for all members. We appreciate your cooperation and understanding as this important maintenance is completed.
