Around here (Missouri) the local electric utility now spends a lot of time on tree-trimming, keeping several squads of workers busy much of the year. This became policy after some 40% of the city was blacked out by trees taking out lines when we had some mini-tornadoes one spring. Now Union Electric has figured out that it's cheaper to trim trees than fix wires. Better PR, too.
