PARKER, Pa., Jan. 18, 2012 – As part of Central Electric Cooperative’s (CEC’s) ongoing effort to improve system reliability, line maintenance crews will begin line clearing and rights-of-way maintenance operations on the Bruin circuit originating from CEC’s Karns City substation.
CEC’s contractor, Asplundh Tree Expert Co. (Asplundh), will begin work Jan. 23, 2012. CEC members and others with electric utility rights-of-way on their property may be contacted by Asplundh representatives or CEC employees. Line maintenance crews access these rights-of-way to perform maintenance and may have personnel and equipment on members’ and others’ properties at times to perform the work. All Asplundh representatives and CEC employees carry company-issued identification.
CEC respects property owners’ rights and will complete the work required as quickly and professionally as possible.
The project will last several months. CEC will give additional notice when the project is complete. If you have any questions or comments, please contact CEC’s Forestry Supervisor, Tim Fritz at 800-521-0570 x2204
We appreciate your patience and cooperation during these improvements.
