Sat May 1: Aerial Survey – Helicopter

WEL news


WEL Networks will commence a post-storm network-wide aerial survey via helicopter.
The one-day aerial survey of the overhead electricity network will commence from 9am today (Saturday, June 1).
The areas being surveyed are those that are difficult to assess and access from the ground for maintenance, fault restoration and response.
The low flying helicopter will be operating fully within Civil Aviation Authority guidelines.
Our pilot and team will be trying their best to stay clear of any livestock, in particular horses. However, you may wish to take precautionary action if they are likely to be spooked, such as moving them away from paddocks near network power lines and/or moving them to a more secure location.
We thank you in advance for your patience and understanding.
