The impact of the ROWSC is large, and continues to grow! The nine ROWSC accredited utilities manage Rights-of-Way in 19 U.S. states and the Canadian province of Alberta, totaling over 53,000 miles of transmission lines that are sustainably managed with IVM. More than 43 million people live in the service areas of these utilities. You can learn more about the impact and benefits of ROWSC accreditation at our website: https://lnkd.in/g8GgxPg9.
We're proud to work with forward-thinking companies like Liberty to build strong people-plant connections and shape the future of vegetation management on #ROWs. The “proof is in the pudding,” as they say, or in the #flowers, #butterflies, and enthusiasm we encounter in the field. Together, we can create environments where both humans and nature thrive!
Investing in Our Crews: The Key to Success in Vegetation Management Training our crews to be more engaged has had a transformative impact on our vegetation management program. By investing in their development, we've achieved remarkable results: Increased Buy-In: Our contractors now feel a stronger connection to the program, understanding its importance and their role in its success. Employee Retention: Engaged and well-trained crews are more likely to stay with us, reducing turnover and building a more experienced team. Improved ROW Conditions: With better training, our crews are more effective in maintaining rights-of-way, leading to safer and more reliable services. Enhanced Biodiversity: Proper training empowers our crews to make environmentally conscious decisions, like preserving milkweed for butterflies, boosting local biodiversity. When you invest in your people, great things happen. Check out this awesome pic of a butterfly on some milkweed left in the ROW by one of our herbicide applicators. Shoutout to all our dedicated crews making a difference every day and Grow with Trees for putting together a killer training program! #VegetationManagement #EmployeeTraining #Biodiversity #Sustainability #ROWManagement #Teamwork #BusinessWisdom #IVM #UtilityVegetationManagement #LeadershipDevelopment #EmployeeRecognition
