ComEd intends to perform vegetation
management activities on portions of 47th Street, Ridgeacres, Gilbert Avenue within the next few months. The vegetation management activities are a key component of ComEd’s maintenance program to ensure system electrical reliability, as vegetation contact with ComEd equipment is a leading cause of outages.
ComEd
has notified any affected customers and property owners with (i) a statement of
the vegetation management activities planned, (ii) the address of a website and
a toll free telephone number at which a written disclosure of all dispute
resolution opportunities and processes, rights, and remedies provided by the
electric public utility may be obtained, (iii) a statement that the customer
and the property owner may appeal the planned vegetation management activities
through the electric public utility and the Illinois Commerce Commission, (iv)
a toll-free telephone number through which communication may be had with a
representative of the electric public utility regarding the vegetation
management activities, and (v) the telephone number of the Consumer Affairs
Officer of the Illinois Commerce Commission. The notice also stated that
circuit maps or common addresses of the area to be affected by the vegetation
management activities are on file with the local municipal or county office.
