Tideland has hired Gunnison Tree to trim vegetative growth in our rights-of-way.

During August, Gunnison will be working on Fairfield Harbour circuits #1 and #2. Areas include Highway 55, Broad Creek Road and Fairfield Harbour subdivision. Once finished they will be transitioning to the Arapahoe circuit out of our Silver Hill substation.

Additional Gunnison crews will also be working on the Engelhard circuit with a mechanical trimmer, climbing crew and bucket crew. Areas to be covered include North Lake Road, Highway 94, Piney Woods Road, Boundary Canal Road, 5th Avenue and Hwy. 264 East. We have engaged additional manpower to get a really good cut on the circuit while conditions are so dry and make access easier.

Our line construction contractor, Lee Electric, will be working all over the system making upgrades to accomodate third-party fiber internet attachments. Lee will be changing out poles, shifting pole hardware and performing other tasks to obtain proper clearances for fiber connecting to our poles.
