Our contractors use a procedure called directional or natural pruning. The U.S. Forest Service and International Society of Arboriculture recommend this method. Idaho Power has been named a “Tree Line USA Utility” by the National Arbor Day Foundation every year since 1997. This award recognizes the company for caring for the health of trees while removing branches and limbs growing too near company power lines.
