The Vegetation Management Plan (VMP) addresses HG&E’s plans for managing vegetation along rights-of-way (ROW) zones associated with gas and electrical transmission and distribution operations. HG&E provides this vegetation planning service in City Hall to the approximately 8 miles of ROWs along the three canals in Holyoke, Massachusetts.
The plan will be in effect during the five year period of 2024 through 2028, in compliance with the Rights-of-Way (ROWs) Management regulations of 333 CMR 11.00. Management techniques may include a combination of methods, such as cutting, mowing, and applying herbicide.
