About this listen

 Bill talks about the difference between maintenance and management under utility lines and why a mindset change is needed to make these plots of land productive. Bill talks about how urban cities have an opportunity to create robust, diverse environmental areas under utility power lines and right of ways that are missing from many urban cities. He breaks down the difference between maintenance and management and how Integrated Vegetation Management (IVM) has been proven to be a better and ultimately less expensive option. And Bill outlines step by step how to have local impact by starting with a pilot program.
