Dear Customer,
We are contacting you about an upcoming project occurring in Thornbury Township.
We recently reviewed the electric service reliability in your neighborhood and noted you have experienced multiple power outages caused by trees and other vegetation. To deliver the level of service you expect from us, we are taking steps to improve your reliability and reduce the number of vegetation-related power outages you experience.
What you will see during this project
• Tree trimming, and where necessary tree removals, will occur in your neighborhood.
• All work will be performed by PECO crews and qualified PECO contractors.
• We will minimize direct customer impact as much as possible and will complete the project in a safe and timely manner.
This work is in addition to our regular preventive tree trimming, which is completed on a four-year cycle, and helps to keep trees and power lines a safe distance apart. We know that in areas where we have completed similar work, our customers have seen a noticeable reduction in power outages caused by trees and vegetation.
During the next few weeks, our qualified PECO contractor will be in your area surveying the necessary tree work. If there is required tree work on your property, we will contact you directly to review the plan in-person.
Tree work is anticipated to be performed in Late April / Early May.
Crews may need to temporarily interrupt electric service to safely complete some of this work. We will work with customers to ensure they are informed in advance of our activities and any planned interruptions. To ensure you receive all outage updates, please confirm that your phone number is accurate in our system through MyAccount at peco.com/myaccount or by calling PECO at 1-800-494-4000.
