Baltimore Gas and Electric Co. has scheduled tree-trimming work in several South County communities this fall as part of a continuing program to minimize tree-related power outages.
Communities to be worked on in coming weeks include Edgewater, Mayo, South River, Shady Side, Lothian, Harwood and Churchton, BGE announced Friday.
Also targeted are communities in the Pasadena area including Jacobsville, Riverdale, Chelsea Beach, Pine Haven, Belhaven Beach, Bayside Beach and Woodland Beach.
"There is a direct correlation between tree trimming and the reduction of power outages," stated Kenneth W. DeFontes, BGE vice president for electric transmission and distribution, in a prepared statement.
