NOTICE TO CUSTOMERS To maintain necessary clearances for safe and reliable electric service, Appalachian Power Co. plans to manage vegetation along the Curry-Lake Washington portion of its 12 kV distribution system in Putnam County in WV. On or about September 9th, 2019, contract crews will begin to apply herbicides along our rights-of-way. This will encourage the growth of native low growing plants like grasses, ferns, forbs, and shrubs. Converting the right of way from brush and trees to native low growing plant community improves wildlife habitat. A low growing plant cover is more resistant to tree invasion which means less work will be needed in the future, reducing the impact on your property and the environment. Rights-of-way in this area involved in the program are: St. Route 34, US Route 60, Stuart Circle, Lafayette Drive, Daniel Boone Trail, Summit Drive, Putnam terrace, Mt. Vernon Circle, E Lynn St., Buff Creek, Revere Road, Longview Drive, Hilltop Drive, Buff Branch, Caldwell Farms, Winners Circle, Hubbard Lane, Joe’s Branch. Representatives will attempt to personally contact resident property owners at least seven business days prior to working on their property. Specifics regarding your property may be discussed at that time. If you are a nonresident property owner and have questions regarding our right-of-way maintenance they may be directed to: Appalachian Power Company Forestry Department 1068 US Route 60 E Milton, WV 25541 (304) 743-7818 LH-78774 9-12;2019
