LINCOLN, Ala. – After two weeks of service at two different Georgia electric cooperatives, 14 Coosa Valley Electric Cooperative (CVEC) linemen and right-of-way response crew personnel have returned home.
CVEC crews first spent a couple of days helping Amicalola Electric Membership Corporation in northern Georgia recover from the effects of Hurricane Helene.
Afterward, they spent more than a week assisting Slash Pine EMC in southern Georgia. Slash Pine EMC suffered approximately 2,000 broken poles from Hurricane Helene.
Thank you to Jesse Stanley, Dustin Irvin, Billy Huffaker, Richie Ingram, Braden Hubbard, Cor’Darrius Swain, Brayden Jackson, Matt Walker, Matt Jeffers, Jared Bishop, Brian Clements, Jacob Green, Cody Pate and Blake Elliott for their dedication.
