Right Tree, Right Place

APS sponsors programs to encourage customers to plant the “right tree in the right place.” This means planting “power line-friendly trees” near high-voltage power lines. Proper tree selection and placement enhances property value, prevents costly and sometimes unsightly maintenance pruning, and lowers the risk of damage to you home and property.

If you need help selecting the proper tree, consult a nursery or and ISA Certified Arborist or an ISA Certified Arborist/Utility Specialist. For more information on tree selection and new tree planting, or to find a Certified Arborist visit www.treesaregood.com or the Arizona Community Tree Council. To learn about trees and utilities go to www.utilityarborist.org.

The International Society of Arboriculture (ISA), headquartered in Champaign, Ill. is a nonprofit organization supporting tree care research around the world. As part of ISA’s dedication to the care and preservation of shade and ornamental trees, it offers the only internationally-recognized certification program in the industry. For more information, contact a local ISA Certified Arborist or visit www.isa-arbor.com.
