Chapter 5.36 FRANCHISE - ELECTRIC UTILITY
Section 5.36.120 Vegetation management.
Rocky Mountain Power or its contractor may prune all trees and vegetation which
overhang the Public Ways, whether such trees or vegetation originate within or outside
the Public Ways to prevent the branches or limbs or other part of such trees or vegetation
from interfering with Rocky Mountain Power's Electrical Facilities. Such pruning shall
comply with the American National Standard for Tree Care Operation (ANSI A300) and
be conducted under the direction of an arborist certified with the International Society of
Arboriculture. A growth inhibitor treatment may be used for trees and vegetation species
that are fast-growing and problematic. Nothing contained in this Section shall prevent
Rocky Mountain Power, when necessary and with the approval of the owner of the
property on which they may be located, from cutting down and removing any trees which
overhang Public Ways.
