Rhode Island Energy has hired Lewis Tree Services of West Henrietta, NY, to perform routine tree pruning in the area starting the week of Thanksgiving (11/25/24).
There is no charge for this service and will occur adjacent to overhead distribution power lines. This work is done in order to maintain minimum clearances between the lines and surrounding trees. This is work that the Department of Public Works is not authorized to perform, due to the closeness of the vegetation to the power lines.
Lewis Tree Services will be starting on Boston Neck Rd from South Ferry Rd down to the Town Beach and all the neighborhoods off Boston Neck Rd. For more information about Lewis Tree Company, visit their website at: https://www.lewisservices.com/
If you have any concerns, please contact Lous Velazquez of Lewis Tree at (585) 404-1459, or RI Energy Customer Service at 1-855-RIE (743)-1101 or visit their website at www.rienergy.com.
This is NOT work being performed by the Department of Public Works.
