To ensure the continued safe and reliable delivery of your electric service, ConEdison has enlisted the support of Alamon Utility Services to carry out Pole Inspections and Treatments of the power poles in your area.

It is well studied and documented that remedial treatment, when used properly, will help extend the life of in-service utility poles.

External Treatment (MP500) shall be applied on any pole that is fully excavated and has been determined to be a serviceable pole. External treatments shall be brushed onto the exposed below ground line portion of the pole. The treated portion of the pole shall be wrapped in a poly-craft paper, and the excavated hole refilled.

Internal Treatment (Copper Napthenate) shall be applied to serviceable poles that show signs of internal decay cavities and/or evidence of wood destroying insects. Copper Napthenate shall be applied per manufacturer’s instructions. Bore holes shall be plugged with wood or plastic plugs.

Fumigant Applications (GFUME96) shall apply to all serviceable poles where internal decay is prevalent or suspected. All holes are to be plugged with tight fitting dowels.

Material Safety Data Sheets (SDS) for these chemicals can be downloaded here.
