REC has contracted with Apex Row, LLC, for 2024, to help control the brush growing under our electric lines. They will spray all of REC’s service area.

“This work is necessary for the safety and reliability of your electrical service,” says John Byrd, Rights-of-Way Coordinator. 

Apex Row, LLC will not spray any yards or around groomed property. They will use a low volume method of spraying consisting of backpack sprayers. Members may see them walking around your property to spray instead of driving around. 

Apex Row, LLC will not spray any trees over 15 feet tall or a diameter at breast height (DBH) of four inches. However, they will spray trees within REC’s rights-of-way easement consisting of 16.5 feet on each side of REC’s primary line.
