To maintain necessary clearances for safe and reliable electric service, Appalachian Power Company plans to manage vegetation along the Alloy Area Distribution portion of its 12-kilovolt distribution system in Fayette County, WV. On or about September 15th, 2025, contract crews will begin to remove trees and apply herbicides along our rights-of- way. In unmaintained or undeveloped areas cuttings will remain on site to minimize soil disturbance and to promote biodegradation.
Rights-of-way in this area involved in the program are: US Rt. 60, throughout the communities of Alloy and Falls View.
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:
