As a qualified arborist i know for a fact these trees can be maintained to clear the lines so there is no need to fell them. i also know for a fact delta and the land owners are going ahead with the fell as they are sick of the costs involved with maintanance but wont entertain any idea of moving the lines! Pure bloody lazyness! Its no secret delta hates trees

 It would certainly be nice to retain these trees.  Lets find out who is responsible for the cost of keeping them clear?  If Delta are at fault for putting the cables there when they had no right too then they should pay (obviously that would come from our line & power charges).

If not what about a Trust Fund to shift the power lines and keep the trees maintained.  1350 odd sidnatures so far at a $100 bucks each would surely go a long way towards the ongoing costs?
