Empire Electric Association, Inc. will conduct routine inspections on poles and towers to determine their current-state of condition during the first three weeks of October. Corrosion, which reduces structural integrity, is inevitable and these inspections are necessary for the safety of EEA’s crews as well as the general public.
This year, EEA subcontracted with SBS Inspections, Inc., pole testing professionals that will be working in EEA’s service territory for several weeks. Please be aware that the inspectors will be on a four-wheeler and may not have identifiable company markings on their clothing or equipment. They could be on or near your property and will be testing the power pole to determine if it needs to be repaired or replaced. If you have a concern regarding this inspection, please call EEA at 970-565-4444.
