CCEC conducting right-of-way maintenance

The following information is from Carteret-Craven Electric Cooperative (CCEC):

Carteret-Craven Electric Cooperative (CCEC) will be conducting right-of-way maintenance along Coast Guard Road and Highway 58 (from Joel Lane to Pier Point Drive) in Emerald Isle beginning Monday, November 28, 2022. Maintenance is scheduled to last for several weeks. For the safety of cooperative employees, contractors, and the public, please slow down and safely move over when you see crews working.

 CCEC has an obligation to provide safe, reliable energy to all its member-owners.  An integral step in meeting that requirement is regular maintenance of power lines, equipment and vegetation within the rights-of-way. We have a three-year right-of-way maintenance program, that is designed to prevent outages and provide safe access to our equipment, while balancing economic costs and environmental concerns.

 CCEC has contracted Temples Tree Service to manage vegetation in our rights-of-way. If you have any questions, please contact the cooperative at 252-247-3107.
