Helicopters Trimming the Trees Near the Power Lines

Have you seen the helicopters trimming the trees near the power lines? Union County resident Lou Gregoire took these photos – giving a good idea as to the size and scope of the equipment that is being used. This method saves time and money as the equipment can cover very large spaces in a short period of time. Very interesting!
