Safety and Cooperation between IBEW Members from Local 659 & UWUA Local 197 couldn't have been more professionally demonstrated. The Pacificorp Coos Bay District Trees Inc. supervisor received a phone call from Todd Williams (Foreman Trees Inc.) stating he had a very hazardous condition at 1850 Ocean Blvd. A large limb had broken out of a large pine tree and had come to rest 2 feet directly above a 3 phase primary pole and transformer. The Journeyman tree trimmer (Skip Shipman) who climbed the tree to inspect the limb for removal stated it was un-safe to attempt removal. The supervisor called Mark Fry (line foreman Coos Bay Local 197) who responded quickly with co-workers Steve Moss & Chad Woodyard. The Pacific Line Crew was able to DE-energize & ground the line for the Tree Crews safety. When the Tree crew attempted to remove the dead limb it broke apart and landed across the 3 phase primary which was thankfully De-energized and grounded. The quick and decisive actions of the Lineman & Tree crew 100% without a doubt  prevented an outage and made a safe work environment for the Tree crew. It is really appreciated when we see such a quick response from Pacific Power with such professionalism and commitment to safety. Thank you to all of those involved in what could have been a dangerous incident and turning it into a safe situation. All these men are credits to the Utility industry.
