Why should my trees be trimmed
Why should my trees be trimmed? Why should my trees be trimmed? One of the main causes of power failures is trees or branches coming into contact with power lines. Horizon Power recognises the value of trees in the environment and actively encourages a policy of growing the right tree in the right place. Unfortunately, as many trees have not been planted in the right place, or have naturally grown too close to power lines, they need to be trimmed. Horizon Power realises that often, people are reluctant to trim them. If trees are not trimmed this can lead to accidents, which happen in many ways such as when: • children, and others, climb trees and touch live wires; • trees touch power lines, become 'alive', and cause danger to anybody touching the tree; • tree branches break wires which then fall to the ground 'alive'; or • trees contact power lines and cause damage to household equipment and appliances. There is also a risk of fire. Trees clashing with power lines can cause sparks or molten metal droplets to fall to the ground and start fires. 2 When do they need trimming? Horizon Power needs you to ensure a safe space is created between the trees and the power lines on your property. If you have trees, palms or any other vegetation growing closer than 3 meters to overhead wires they should be trimmed. If trees are trimmed in line with your boundary fence, this will generally be a safe distance from power lines. Remember, some trees can move a long way in a strong wind. Trees need to be trimmed so that during storms and high winds they will not be able to hit power lines. The diagram below shows the minimum clearance zone. Horizon Power usually recommends a clearance of more than 3 metres, particularly if you cannot get the trees trimmed frequently. It is also a good idea to check other branches and trees that may be nearby. Remove any branches or trees in this area if they are unsafe. 3 Who should trim your trees? Trimming or lopping your own tree close to power lines can be extremely dangerous. If a branch comes into contact with lines anyone touching the tree, even if they're climbing it or trimming trees around it, risks an electric shock. Each year people are killed trimming trees around power lines. Horizon Power strongly recommends you hire a professional tree surgeon or contractor to do the job. They can be found in telephone directories such as the Yellow Pages or other business directories, under 'Tree'. Tree surgeons should be trained to do the job properly and safely. Make sure they have: 1 current public liability insurance, and 2 a certificate for completing a 'Pruning Trees Around Power Lines' course, approved by Horizon Power. 4 Who's responsible for trimming trees? Occupiers are responsible to make sure trees growing at their residence are kept clear of all power lines. If you are renting a property, you are responsible for ensuring that the work is completed. Check if this is covered in your rental agreement. If Horizon Power has to prune a tree, the occupier will be charged for the service. Local councils are normally responsible for trimming trees on street verges. If you see a tree on the street verge growing too close to power lines, please inform your local council or your local Horizon Power office as quickly as possible. The diagram below shows who is responsible for pruning the trees. The trees coloured orange are the responsibility of the occupier of Property A; those coloured blue are the responsibility of the occupier of Property B. The tree planted on the verge is the responsibility of the local council. 5 Tree trimming techniques If a tree is not pruned properly it can be damaged or create even greater problems in the long-term. Lopping is a short-term solution to reduce the height or spread of a tree. It is a technique in which branches are removed leaving a stub (diagram 1). In its most severe form, all of a tree's canopy is removed leaving only stubs (diagram 2). Diagram 1 Diagram 2 Stub Trees should only be trimmed using natural target pruning techniques, where branches are removed close to the trunk. To remove a branch safely, cut 1, 2, 3 as follows: 1. Undercut the branch by one third to prevent the bark from stripping. 2. Cut from above, as Branch Bark shown. Ridge 2 3. Remove the stump, following the contour of the trunk. Cut outside 1 the branch bark ridgeline and Branch branch collar. Collar 6 Don't leave a stump which encourages very fast sucker growth, and don't flush cut down the bark line as the tree will take too long to heal, exposing it to the possibility of disease. If trees are diseased, weakened by storms, have poor roots, are too large for the area, structurally unsound or attacked by insects, they should be removed and replaced with more suitable trees. If you need more information on tree pruning techniques consult a tree surgeon or tree contractor, the Arboricultural Association, the Tree Guild, the Tree Society or a book on tree pruning from your local library or bookshop. To select correct replacement trees, consult your local nursery and your local council, or visit our website www.horizonpower.com.au Cut Stump 3 Collar 7 Queries If you have any questions or concerns about our service, please call us on 1800 267 926 (or 1800 737 036 business customers).

Meyers (2-3) at Hanover Area (2-3)
7 p.m. today
The Coaches: Meyers' Corry Hanson (10-16, 3rd year); Hanover Area's Ron Hummer (36-46, 8th year)
Last Meeting: Meyers 34-7 in 2012
All-Time Series: Meyers leads 42-29-3
Quick Fact: After losing four in a row to Hanover Area, Meyers has won the last two meetings.
Scouting Meyers: Meyers enters off a 14-10 loss to Lake-Lehman where it scored a TD and two-point conversion with 33 seconds left. The Mohawks won the field position battle in the first half, yet led just 2-0. Those points came on a football follies fumble that resulted in a safety. QB Matt DeMarco had 85 yards on the ground in the read-option attack, but didn't score a touchdown for the first time this season. The rest of the attack did very little to excite.
Scouting Hanover Area: Hanover Area pulled off a 20-14 upset of Northwest last Friday. The running game was dormant, but QB Jake Peters came through with 224 yards and three TDs through the air, both career highs for a guy who was supposed to be the backup this year. DB Elido Veras recorded his third interception of the season, and the defense held Northwest's strong running game to a season-low 120 yards. It didn't give up a score in the first half.
What To Expect: Meyers "poked the bear" a little bit in last year's game by scoring with 18 seconds left. It's doubtful Hanover Area has forgotten. Look for a tougher game than in 2012.
