Protecting the Power Lines and Keeping Communities Beautiful
The "Good News" team is back better than ever along with our series sponsor, Rappahannock Electric Cooperative. Not only will we explore our region, local business and the initiatives that are taking places; but we'll learn more about REC and their impact on our Fredericksburg, VA community.
In the Weeds about Vegetation Management
We were in the studio for a conversation with Cindy Musick, Director of Vegetation Management for REC about their vegetation management program. We talked about how & why they schedule their maintenance; how it works & who the people are in the trucks and on the front lines for clearing right-of-ways. We discussed how many of those on her team are certified arborists and foresters; some strange things she’s seen in her travels to member properties; and even learned about how members can acquire wood chips from their local maintenance crew.
