Important Information for Residents

National Grid Herbicide Notice


National Grid will be performing vegetation treatments on its right-of-ways in Wentworth starting July 1 to the end of October 2017.

National Grid writes in the letter listed below that "landowners or residents should make the application contractor aware of the location of a potentially affected water supply, and of any other sensitive area where herbicide application should be further restricted. The planned work will be performed by Lewis Tree Service. The contact person at Lewis Tree Service is David O'Brien and can be reached from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM at 413-237-9870."

"Landowners whose property is within 200 feet of the right-of-way, or over whose property the right-of-way passes [can] receive individual written notification thirty days prior to any foliar treatment" by sending in a coupon to National Grid.  The coupon is included at the end of the National Grid Notification letter document referenced below.
