Tree trimming


Tuesday morning (4/13/2010), Asplundh, a PG&E sub-contractor came to trim two palms trees, 771 Reina Del Mar and 835 Reina Del Mar. Interestingly, two of the original trees identified for removal were not immediately at risk. We could have lost the two palms on Reina Del Mar, near Ramona, even though they were not even an imminent risk. I want to thank Joel Smith (PG&E) and Lori Cuesta (WECI) for double checking the trees and performing what limited trimming they needed to, in order to maintain a safe clearance.

Pictured below is a "hot stick" used to gauge the distance from the 12K volt primary lines and the crown of the tree.
