Manitobans can now see where Manitoba Hydro plans to perform important vegetation management activities in a new online, interactive map. Manitoba Hydro is focusing more resources on this vegetation management work to enhance reliability for customers and safety for the public and employees. Typically, customers will be informed directly of planned vegetation management in their area as the date approaches. “This is a step forward in our communication about where we’re trimming trees and other work,” said Peter Chura, Media Relations Officer for Manitoba Hydro. Manitoba Hydro uses heavy machinery to clear brush near infrastructure in rural areas, and targeted herbicide to prevent growth of specific vegetation.
