Trees and utility service lines are integral components of every community. By necessity, they must co-exist in close proximity, and each in its own way is essential to our high standard of living.
CU has been recognized as a Tree Line USA utility since 1994. The Arbor Day Foundation™ Tree Line USA program promotes the dual goals of dependable utility service and abundant, healthy trees in America's communities.
Overgrown and fallen tree limbs are the leading cause of power outages during storms. Our tree maintenance program helps ensure safe, reliable service for you and your neighbors by carefully trimming branches that may interfere with power lines.
We perform tree trimming to create minimum distances between electric lines and the surrounding trees. You can help by choosing the right tree for the right place.
