Pole Inspection Update

January 7, 2021

January 7, 2021 - Montrose County — Delta-Montrose Electric Association (DMEA) is now inspecting power poles throughout its service territory. DMEA is contracting with SBS Inspections to conduct the work. Crews are currently working in Montrose County, specifically, west and north of Olathe. The inspections are expected to last through the winter.

SBS Inspections may need to enter onto members’ properties to complete the inspections. Their vehicles will be marked with DMEA contractor labels. DMEA asks for its members’ cooperation in allowing contractors access to poles located on private property. The co-op will inspect more than 3,000 poles as part of its power reliability and system maintenance program.

For more information about DMEA’s pole inspection process or property access, contact Troy Hall (970) 240-1237 or troy.hall@dmea.com.
