Reply to comment by 4eververmonter in So. With all of the power outages in VT and New Enland area, hats off to all of the line crew for restoration! But.. what if.... your company instilled a root cause, corrective action plan? Root cause? Um maybe the infustructure can't withthstand the weather presenting trees taking out the system? by 4eververmonter

What is the threshold? How much specifically are you willing to pay for less outage time? Would you pay 20% more on your bill every month for an 8hr reduction in outage time per year on average? I’m not trying to troll I’m genuinely curious what your thoughts are.

Let's tally the cost of restoration. Reduce that by,??and budget it for tree maintenance to prevent the damage. Should be at least attempted in areas that are prone to costly, constant (not just this one storm) restoration. Maybe a pilot program?
