The Board of Selectmen received correspondence from Eversource regarding system improvements in the area. Eversource will be using a helicopter to help string wires in the power line corridor in the Canton area. Using a helicopter will decrease the amount of ground disruption along the power line corridor and will allow Eversource to complete the required work more quickly and efficiently. Reduced ground level activities equates to fewer impacts to property owners and environmentally sensitive areas. Some noise is expected as the helicopter flies over the power line corridor. For safety reasons, access to the corridor will be restricted when the helicopter is in the area and during the work operations. The helicopter work will be conducted intermittently between mid-March and early summer 2018. This schedule is weather dependent and subject to change. Please call 1-800-793-2202 or email transmissioninfo@eversource.com with questions.
