They enrich the aesthetics of neighborhoods and support the environment. We are committed to protecting and maintaining that environment while prov iding safe and reliable electric service . In the next few weeks, we will be performing line clearing i n your neighborhood . We will be cleari ng threatening branches and limbs that can potentially cause safety hazards and power outages by brushing against or fall i ng upon our power lines during windy weather. The trees will be trimmed in a manner that redirects new growth away from power lines. At times, we also need to remove select palms and other fast growing vegetation that cannot be effectively maintained by trimming. Remaining tree debris will be removed. We ask that you facilitate these efforts by providing access to trees near power lines beh i nd your property. Your cooperation is valuable in helping prevent outages to you and your neighbors. If access to your property is required, a contractor w i ll contact you personally or leave a note at your door in advance of any work. For questions, call Vegetation Management at 1-866-274-9098 and refer to Work Order 5883212. In the meantime, please do not attempt to trim any trees or vegetation grow i ng on or near power lines. Safety is a core value at FPL, which is why we hire specially- tra i ned line clearing professionals to perform this work. And remember, line clearing is an effective preventative maintenance effort for improved reliability, but it is not a substitute for smart landscaping.
