Maybe.

And it doesn't have to be burying 100% of the lines, it could only be burying small stretches of lines where problem areas are. (I.E. a certain spot where the lines get torn down very consistently for the past decade whenever there's a storm, and it's an area that connects to a substation so the entire town loses power at once when said line is downed.)

Couldn't agree more.

Often times people throw around these huge numbers to discourage forcing Eversource spending any of our money on upgrades.

Not all lines need to be buried, but we should as hell spend more than $0 to bury lines.
