Neighborhood Projects
LPEA regularly conducts infrastructure improvements like tree trimming, drone surveying, and field projects to deliver more reliable power. If we're going to be in your neighborhood, we will notify you in advance via call, text, email, and/or letter. Our crews always aim to minimize the impact of projects on the landowners involved. Scroll down below the map for more details on this year's projects.

Vegetation Management & Tree Trimming
Why does LPEA trim and remove trees?
-
Safety: Electricity can travel through the tree and severely injure or kill individuals working or playing on or near the tree.
-
Reliability: Maintaining a clearance of at least 15-25 feet between our powerlines and trees minimizes the impact trees have on your electric service.
-
Fire Mitigation: Maintaining proper clearance also decreases the risk of wildfires. When trees come in contact with our lines, they can catch fire.
-
Affordability: By maintaining clear rights-of-way around our powerlines, we prevent the need to repair and replace equipment damaged by trees.

The first phase of Yucca Estates Cable Replacement project is completed and the second phase is estimated to take about four months starting in early March 2025. Cable is being upgraded as it does not meet system design standards due to faults. We plan to replace 2.14 miles of underground cable.

Tree Trimming Projects
LPEA's Vegetation Management Program serves as our primary defense against power outages and potential wildfires. Overgrown trees and other vegetation can interfere with power lines and equipment, potentially causing outages, fires, and other safety hazards. To mitigate these risks, we regularly inspect, trim, and remove trees and other vegetation that could potentially interfere with our power lines.
Our active tree trimming projects are:
- Rock Creek area
- Forest Lakes area
- Bodo Park
