Perfect Leaf Management has comprehensive and reliable vegetation management programs especially designed to maintain the electric company’s transmission right of way. Trees are considered part of a place’s natural beauty, however, trees and vegetation are factors that can lead to problems if not properly maintained including power outages. It is important, therefore, to balance the aesthetic concerns with safety factors.
Managing Vegetation Promotes Better Transmission System
Managing vegetation within major electric lines is essential for the safety and reliability of the utility’s operation. Switchyards, substations, and many other facilities need perpetual maintenance to be able to maintain a vegetation-free area around power lines. Vegetation maintenance and treatment must be facilitated annually and in some particular climatic regions, various treatments might be required.
Invasive weeds
Transmission lines are viewed as superhighways of the electric grid allowing electricity to be transferred from power plants to the end-users. As part of the continuing effort of enhancing service reliability, there are management programs geared towards removing tree stumps, branches, and other vegetation along miles of transmission lines.
To ensure the safety and reliability of utilities, it is essential that existing easement rights on vegetation management be enforced. Removal of trees underneath high-voltage lines instead of pruning serves to reduce chances of vegetation contact.
Vegetation removal
Proper vegetation management does not necessarily involve the removal of all vegetation. Compatible plants or shrubs that do not really interfere with the electric facilities are commonly not disturbed.
Vegetation maintenance of the line corridors must include a varied mixture of grasses, low-growing shrubs, and many other types of ground cover preferred by birds and other small animals to promote thriving wildlife habitats. In such a case, a well-managed right of way offers cover and food needed for wildlife and at the same time, the reliable electric supply that customers need.
