To maintain the Right of Ways along our lines served by the Canton, Lewistown, and  Williamstown substations, Lewis County REC has contracted with Progressive Spraying. These crews will be primarily walking the Right of Ways with backpack sprayers. This will be a low volume and selective spray program that will target all sprouts and woody stemmed vegetation that may have regrown under the lines. This method will give the most effective brush control and minimize over spray, drift, run-off, and harm to other vegetation. Our goal is to attain a Right of Way that caters to native grasses, pollinators, and other low growing vegetation. They will be spraying in the Right of Way areas away from yards and farmland. 
If you would have any concerns about a crew spraying the Right of Ways on your property, please call: 
Kendall Hawkins, Operations Manager or Scott Gamm, Field Engineer@ 573-215-4000 
Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.
