Can I build or plant on an electricity transmission easement?
2025-08-09
Generally, landowners are restricted from building permanent structures (such as houses, sheds, or swimming pools) within an easement. The restrictions are in place to ensure the safety of the public and to provide utility crews with unobstructed access for maintenance and repairs. Planting tall trees that could interfere with power lines is also typically prohibited. The specific rules vary depending on the easement agreement and local regulations. Always contact the utility company before planning any work in the easement area. Our equipment is vital for maintaining these clear zones, as it's used for the safe installation and repair of overhead and underground cables.
