There needs to be a law with no trees and brush within 100feet of power lines.


and I'm sure Mother Nature will take that into consideration....

EnergyUnited and Wilkes Telephone do the same thing.

Have we really become so lazy that we have to spray poison everywhere? Plenty of people need a job right now.

And the intense high voltage field surrounding the power lines ionizes the molecules of surrounding matter. I may have to ban all power lines and people can go back to drawing water up from the well with a windlass and a pail.

Hunter...How about back in the 60's when it was available. Now, no one is gonna admit to it as there would be law suits galore.

I haven't seen or even heard a snipe in last two decades. And where have all the chimney sweeps gone. No killdeer pretending to have a broken wings. People, will it take a plague of locusts to wake you up.

I'm not complaining as long as the electricity is on....friggn tree huggers/political correctness/anti smokers/don't beat your children/i'm offended by everything people are a bigger problem IMO.
the next thing you know they will try telling Me that I can't scratch my balls or fart in the privacy of My Own home ok before you go there ...Just F.O. already...but "Have a Nice Day" while you're doing it

I think they should fence the Rights of Way and put goats in there to control the plant life.

Peace to all of you who agree and disagree. Every one has a right to their opinion, everyone has a right to fight for what they believe. What ever the cause... change cannot happen if you do not speak up.

PEACE!

http://www.journalnow.com/n...r-chicken- This was very interesting. However I do not see the comparison to chemical useage. My cause is not to address every environmental issue,.. yes their are a lot more important problems in this county. I just want to be given the "right" to decide what is safe to be used on my land. No government agency has the right to expose me to dangerous substances... Easements / right of ways may technically not belong to land owners, but the ground a certain amount of feet in either direction does.

There's plenty of trees around to hug that haven't been killed by the agent orange.

There are pros and cons to every decision. My posts are obviously my opinion. I am passionate about environmental issues especially when they affect me personally. I will voice my concerns through the proper channels starting with town hall. For all of you out there who too are concerned http://www.syemc.com/conten...management

please speak up. Our voices have a right to be heard. Change can only happen if majority rules. Before the next round of spraying takes place, lets see if a compromise can be agreed upon. Who out there would be willing to show up to a public forum at town hall ???
