Hello there is no service to Trinity pines …. And they have been shot at before and law enforcement will do nothing because the corruption is so big ……………….
this is work on the high voltage line out from redding to the coast that runs along 36, substations at mad river and wildwood.
Trinity Pines could get power if it wanted, it would not take many users to request it for a substation. but it will be pg&e and not trinity pud.
If Trinity Pines wants power it has to be put on the ballot and voted on and the power has to come from TPUD not PG&E who has lines running thru the middle of Post Mtn. I’m a board member of the PMPUD so I know what I’m talking about. Trinity County will fund it if the residents vote for it. It will not be cheap. last time it failed by a few votes..
No we try for many yrs and PUD won’t give power to the Pines from what I understand PUD has the territory and ATT can’t give power to us even thou the lin s go true the Pines
Oh good, my buddy thats out there was freaking out last night thinking it was a gigantic raid going down.
I wish there was! But that area doesn’t need helicopters. Just trucks driving up w/ a couple woodchippers would reduce enormously the profits we are allowing these criminals to pocket. And it would send a message to everybody.
