What-to-Know: WP Telectronics Tree Trimming Project
Notes
Recommend all crew members download Google Earth and Avenza Maps to their smartphones (both are free apps).
Google Earth provides real-time location and detailed specs for all spans by clicking on the associated Pin. (Also, driving directions for ERP purposes).
Avenza Maps opens georeferenced PDF maps, as well as .kml +.kmz files. (Will open all PDF files, but requires a PDF base map that is georeferenced to provide your real-time location).

Work Plan
See KML file for detailed project specs
The scope is primarily picture-frame tree and brush trimming to establish a minimum 1 metre clearance in all directions around the telecom strand. There are 19 sections across Silverton, New Denver, Hills and Burton. Most are short <350 metres, with only a couple longer sections.
Client will provide traffic control.
Chipping, removal and disposal of all debris is included.
Attached for reference
KML – load on your phone or GPS and it will walk you through all 19 sections in driving order. The KML opens in Google Earth and can be imported into Google Maps.
Four marked up fibre placing prints per community. The spans needing trimming are highlighted in orange and labelled with the section number and pole range, so you can match what you see in the field to the pole numbers on the drawing.
