Transmission Helicopter

Residents are advised that Chesapeake Bay Helicopters will be mobilizing to the Illuminating Company region on or about September 23, 2022 to begin routine transmission line patrols for the Fall season on all Illuminating Company transmission lines. These patrols are anticipated to take three weeks to complete but completion could be impeded by inclement weather.

The helicopter will be conducting a general inspection of the transmission lines. They may also be seen hovering or circling to inspect any potential problems.  The exact date that the patrol will be in the Mentor area has not been disclosed.
