Why we do it better
Environmental supporters
We recognize that our infrastructure impacts the environment, the landscape and land use. Guided by our environmental commitment and environmental management system, we strive to reduce the impact that construction, operation and maintenance of our facilities have on the environment. We look for opportunities to apply innovative practices and new technologies that lessen the effect of our work. Whether it’s our transmission line projects, our involvement in the community, or our right-of-way maintenance activities, protecting the environment is part of the way we operate.
