Eversource implements helicopter tree trimming to help prevent power outages

Members in Awendaw may have seen an unusual sight recently as contract crews used a helicopter to trim trees along the co-op's power lines. By using a helicopter, crews can cut 5x more compared to regular mechanical trimming and can also reach normally inaccessible areas, like swamps. | Berkeley Electric Cooperative, Inc.

I had a long day, but guess who was back this morning. Don't mind the chickens yelling in the background. 😅 I was soo obviously in the zone and used to hearing them, that I myself personally drowned em out and wasn't paying any attention that you could hear em until playing it back. 😆🤷‍♀️ Welcome to farm life I guess. In between Mexico and Centralia, MO or South of Paris, MO. | Weather Jinxer Storm Chaser
