Tree Planting Tips

Tree ROWRight 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.

Right Tree Right Place

Check out the Nebraska Forest Service website for choosing trees that will be right for your property.

Don’t forget to call the Digger’s Hotline before you dig to plant trees.
