Ameren reminds farmers of power line safety during harvest

Harvest in full swing and Ameren Illinois on a publicity blitz to remind farmers to be careful when driving their harvest equipment under power lines. Director of Electric and Gas Operations Daetta Jones says there was an incident in the Galesburg area last week where a farmer’s harvest equipment came into contact with power lines.
 

 

 
Jones says there should be a ten-foot clearance between equipment and power lines. Another thing to remember is to stay inside a vehicle that power lines have fallen on so you can avoid touching them.
