How do I report a tree limb near a power line along the street?
• Contact our Call Center at (845) 542-2700 or 1-800-527-2714 to report trees or limbs that are in contact with primary electric wires (which are usually the top wires on utility poles located along streets and highways). Helpful information includes the street location of the tree, an intersecting street or road, and whether the condition presents an immediate hazard. Central Hudson will trim or remove the limbs to prevent an outage, and may seek the property owner’s permission to remove trees that are dead or dying and leaning heavily toward lines if they pose a dangerous condition. • Please note that Central Hudson is not responsible for trimming limbs near telephone wires (usually grouped near the bottom), or service wires that attach to individual homes. Central Hudson crews will drop service wires so that the property owner’s contractor can safely trim or remove limbs or trees; call Central Hudson for an appointment at (845) 452-2700 or 1-800-527-2714.
