REC, a cooperative that serves the Northern Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, is currently focused on its vegetation management efforts. In a recent interview with Casey Hollins, the managing director of communication and public relations at REC, we discussed the latest updates in this area of focus.
According to Hollins, it is once again time to clear vegetation from around power lines to ensure the safety and reliability of the electric system. She also mentioned that new technologies are being used to achieve this goal, including the use of satellites to assess the health of trees near power lines.
REC’s commitment to maintaining a reliable electric system through effective vegetation management is a key priority for the cooperative and its members.
