According to Public Service Commission regulations, poles are to be inspected on a regular basis to determine their remaining life expectancy. During this inspection process, several poles have been “flagged” for replacement due to deterioration. Crews have been installing new poles at various locations around town, with final line transfers scheduled throughout the winter. Old pole removal and ground restoration will be completed in the spring.
