Right Tree Right Place
Elkhorn Rural Public Power District wants to protect your landscaping investment. Please pay close attention to utilities around your house when planning large shrubs or trees. A little pre-planning will help to protect the safety and reliability of your electricity over time.
Below is a link to an Arbor Day diagram to help you determine what kinds of trees would be appropriate in what areas around your home and around power lines.
NPPD also has a great website on tree planting and vegetation management around power lines. Check it out here.
Don’t forget to call the Digger’s Hotline before you dig to plant trees.
