The Johnson City Power Board (JCPB) has contracted Davey Resource Group (DRG) to complete an inventory of all power poles located within JCPB’s service territory. As DRG completes the inventory process, they will be confirming ownership of each pole within JCPB’s service territory while plotting its GPS coordinates. This information will be invaluable as the JCPB begins to integrate its mapping system with a new software package which will ultimately power JCPB’s smart grid.
Mark Eades, Chief Operations Officer for the JCPB offered, “We [JCPB] opted to contract this work to a third party to ensure our inventory is completed quickly and without disrupting our normal operations.” JCPB has outfitted DRG’s trucks with magnetic JCPB decals. JCPB officials ask that customers cooperate with DRG’s crews as they complete their work. DRG is currently working on JCPB’s pole inventory and is scheduled to complete the work by the end of June, 2010.
