You obviously do not grasp the number of trees involved. They are
trimmed regularly. Ice storms uproot them entirely, along with
electrical poles.

I guess you really think everyone in KY is barefoot and has an IQ of
35?


Heck, some even lie about having PhD's!

At 50, due to disabilty, and I didn't have to lie about a thing.

I know that sounds utterly amazing to you, having that PhD and all!

This is why we pay taxes.


Duh...can you possibly be as stupid as you seem? It costs a little
over a million dollars to pay for each mile of electrical wires put
underground.


How much does it cost to trim the trees along the ROW?


Beyond simply Trimming the Branches . . . It also
has to do with the "Fall" Radius of the Trees : A
45-Ft Tall Oak Tree has a 'potential' "Fall" Radius
of 45-Ft in Kentucky.

FWIW a 200-Ft Tall Pine Tree has a 'potential'
"Fall" Radius of 200-Ft here in the Sierras.

Here Living-in-the-Red-Zone {Forested Fire Area}
Technically the Insurance and Fire Laws would
have us 'Clear' all the trees that could Fall on the
House during a Forest Five. That would require
the de-forestation of all the very tall Pine and
Fir Trees with-in a 50-Ft, 75-Ft, 100-Ft, 150-Ft,
200-Ft, and 250-Ft or more depending in the
Height of the individual Trees.

Properly maintained trees do not "fall over".

That's required by law in L. A. County as well. We take disaster prep
very seriously here.
