Fredon-PSE&G Annual Vegetation Maintenance notification

If you have any questions or concerns, please telephone Public Service Electric & Gas Transmission Vegetation Management Department at 732-289-5292.

PSE&G’s vegetation management plan has been developed
in compliance with regulations and follows established
industry standards and best management practices.
In accordance with NJ regulation N.J.A.C. 14:5-9:
} Woody vegetation that can exceed 3 feet in height at maturity is
required to be removed from within the wire zone, except agricultural
crops that mature at 12 feet or less.
} Clearing within the ROW will be wide enough so that no vegetation will
fall or grow into the transmission lines.
} Any plant species that poses a threat to maintenance of the ROW, and
is identified as invasive and non-indigenous to New Jersey, will be
removed from the ROW.
} Trees and other woody vegetation that would otherwise need to be
removed may remain when certain conditions are met in limited
circumstances such as: when easement, deed or other written land
rights executed before 2007 expressly permit vegetation to be located
within the ROW and/or the slope of the topography exceeds 30 degrees
and the mature height of vegetation will allow more than 150 percent of
the clearance requirements.
} Only grass vegetation will be permitted to grow within three feet of
any structure.
} Where clearing has occurred and bare soil is exposed, soil
erosion requirements of the applicable soil conservation district
will be observed.
} A list of generally compatible tree species is available on our website.
However, compatibility is site specific and an authorized PSE&G
representative should be contacted before planting on a ROW.
