Know Your Zone
A comprehensive pole inspection program starts with understanding how geography and climate impact pole decay rates.
Alamon recommends the use of the USDA’s RUS ‘Utility Pole Decay Severity Zone’ map as a guideline to how often a Utility should inspect their valuable wood pole assets.
