[MAIPC] Integrated Vegetation Management

[frazmo]

Yes and my sense has been that the group is heavily oriented toward
right-of-way issues and thus lots of utilities representation. My personal
opinion is that the utility right-of-ways represent important actual or
potential habitat and the IVM folks seem to be doing some constructive work
to balance the utilities' needs with environmental/sustainability
considerations. I would rather see a utility subscribing to IVM than doing
some of the slapdash work I was seeing twenty years ago by an unnamed local
utility, where they were taking a bad problem and making it worse through
poor practices. (Incidentally I believe they have gotten on board with IVM
and shown considerable improvement.) Cheers,  Steve Young, Arlington VA
