S & L Pole Testing Will Begin Pole Testing Soon
S & L Pole Testing will be performing utility pole tests
starting the week of May 14th. They will be working in the Logan and
Neligh township in Cuming County in the CCPPD service area.
The pole testing will take a few weeks in each area. You
will see S & L Pole Testing pick-ups and ATV’s along the country roads.
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.
S & L Pole
Testing is a professional firm out of Columbus, Nebraska that is an expert in
pole evaluations. Employees from S & L will be identifiable by company
logos, equipment, shirts and hard hats and will carry identification.
For more information, stop at the CCPPD office 500 South
Main Street West Point or call (402) 372-2463.
