Trees and power lines are a delicate mix. Because of that, MTEMC encourage builders and developers to think about the relationship of electric rights-of-way when making landscaping plans. Some trees have no place near power line rights-of-way, some other tree types however, can be safely planted within and near rights-of-way. The lists below provide a number of trees MTEMC recommends.
