Global Utility Services will be performing distribution line pole tests starting in August through September. They will be testing poles in the northeast part of Plainview. This will be part of the year four distribution rebuild project.
You will see the Global Utility Services pick-ups and ATVs along the roads and alleys. Please be aware of these workers and drive carefully.
Most utility poles are made of wood and their constant exposure to the environment takes a toll. Wind, moisture, and soil conditions all can distress or decay wood. Regular pole inspection and treatment helps to spot and take care of any problems before they become critical situations.
Global Utility Services is a professional firm out of Columbus, NE, that is an expert in pole evaluations. Employees from Global Utility Services will be identifiable by company logos, equipment, shirts and hard hats and will carry identification.
