Duke Energy maintenance

Posted on July 21, 2011July 21, 2011 by Staff

To keep high-voltage transmission lines clear of trees and tall growing plants, Duke Energy will conduct vegetation management work in Chapel Hill and the surrounding area in August and September. A limited number of these large transmission-line easements cross a portion of Chapel Hill’s jurisdiction. Work will include herbicide applications.
Transmission lines are located in 68- to 100-foot-wide cleared easements or rights-of-way that connect Duke Energy substations. The maintenance work is done on a cyclical schedule and was last undertaken in 2008.
For more information, visit duke-energy.com/safety/right-of-way-management.asp or contact Ervin Summers at (336) 634-4633 or Ervin.Summers@duke-energy.com.
