Tree Trimming Schedule

Right-of-way (ROW) re-clearing along Great Lakes Energy power lines is scheduled this year in the counties and townships listed below.

Workers will attempt to get as many lines cleared as time permits. Other areas where tree growth presents a problem may be added to this list.

We will notify members if tree clearing is happening in their area by means of a postcard and phone message notification, approximately two weeks before the work begins.
