Yes, if there are trees growing underneath or too close to electric lines that cannot be properly trimmed to maintain an acceptable appearance. In other cases, there are trees that may be decaying, dying or storm-damaged that have a high probability of falling onto high voltage electric lines or other critical components of the electric distribution system. In these cases, Paris BPU will remove the tree in question. Paris BPU will not remove trees that threaten service lines that connect to a home or building but will make arrangements to remove any Paris BPU-owned lines connected to the house or building so the owner may remove the tree himself. There is no charge for this service during Paris BPU’s regular work hours.
