FISHERS ISLAND ELECTRIC TREE CARE PROGRAM

Enhancing electric system reliability using sensible tree and vegetation management procedures.

Trees are a leading cause of power interruptions. When power is disrupted during wind or ice storms, it is often due to tree limbs making contact with power lines and equipment. To help avoid tree-related service interruptions, we manage vegetation around thousands of miles of power lines, keeping these areas free of trees and undergrowth.
