Duke Energy plans to trim trees in Apalachicola over the next few weeks

Duke Energy plans to start doing some tree trimming around Apalachicola in the next few weeks.

The company will start the work beginning next week west of Apalachicola and move eastward towards town over the next few weeks.

They should start working in the City limits around October 6th.

Duke Energy has begun distributing door hangers throughout the targeted area of the city detailing why the power company performs vegetation maintenance around power lines and their plans to begin trimming within the Apalachicola community. 

The contractor, Burford Tree Service, plans to use 4-6 bucket trucks, several chipping trucks as well as a few other vehicles for logistical purposes.

The total project is scheduled to last between 4-6 weeks.

You can see a map on the work area on-line at Apalachicola mayor Van Johnson’s blog at mayorvanjohnson.blogspot.com.
