UDWI REMC Dispatch Manager, Britt Miller, with the help of UDWI linemen Jacob Pyne, Michael Nail, and Zane Anderson, conducted three Live Line Demonstrations for first responders in Greene and Monroe counties. Through these demonstrations, UDWI REMC staff educated first responders on the dangers of interacting with the high voltage lines and discussed safety protocols for accident prevention.
UDWI greatly appreciates and respects our law enforcement and first responders, and we know that these demonstrations are a top priority to ensure the safety of those who may interact with live electric lines! We encourage other law enforcement and first responder teams to contact us about participating in the Live Line Demo program - it could save a life.
We would like to give a special thanks to those from the Greene County Sheriff's Department, Highway Department, Fire Department, and county EMS workers for attending our workshop. We would also like to give special thanks to those from the Monroe County Sheriff's Office the Monroe County Highway Department for attending.
