POLE INSPECTION AND VEGETATION MANAGEMENT

Posted: 7/10/2023

Eau Claire Energy Cooperative's mission is to ensure our members recieve safe and reliable power. Some ways Eau Claire Energy Cooperative works to accomplish that is by controlling vegetation around power lines and by ensuring the structural integretiy of power poles. Because of this, ECEC will have some third-party contractors in the areas shown on the maps below to trim and spray vegetation and inspect poles internal stability.

If you have any questions about either of these services, please contact our office at 715-832-1603.
