When they did their incredible scew-up here last year - when building a new road through my land - I don't think any of it was collectively vindictive. It just seemed that the "new" National Grid was incredibly unorganized. And, nobody working for them at an administrative level was willing to take repsonsibility for any of their mistakes.
When the State Police came here - it was because National Grid called them on ME - but the whole thing backfired on them. The equipment I chained to a tree was actually owned by Aslplundh - but they were working in behalf of National Grid.
The reality is - they have a lot of power lines above ground - and if they had their way - they'd cut down all the trees. That would make things much simpler and go a long way to prevent power outages. But . . . some people like trees - and own them. So, all has to be a compromise. I have my rights as a property owner - and the power company has their rights. Point is - they should NOT go beyond those rights - and they often do.
I have two properties in Northen Michigan and the power company there is a Co-Op - i.e. Presque Isle Electric and Gas. Dealing with them is incredibly different than here in NY. They are polite, organized, seem to care about property rights, etc. A real pleasure to deal with.

It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
