D uck River Electric Membership Cor- poration (DREMC) has contracted Osmose Util- ity Services to perform utility pole inspections throughout the DREMC service area. The inspection pro- cess will involve evalu- ating every pole on the DREMC system. Os- mose Utility Services crews plan to complete pole inspections in the Marshall County area by late May, weather permitting. Osmose vehicles will display a “DREMC Contractor” magnet, and personnel will have identification badges. Close access to util- ity poles is necessary to complete the pole inspections and may re- quire Osmose personnel to be on private prop- erty. The Duck River Electric team appreci- ates your patience as they work to ensure that members receive safe, reliable electric service at the lowest possible cost.
